We are pleased to invite you to the XVIII Conference Mediterranean Roots of Philosophy - Mediterranean Humanism: On the 500th Anniversary of the Death of Marko Marulić.
\nThe conference is organized by the Croatian Philosophical Society and the Department of Philosophy of the Faculty of Philosophy\, University of Split\, Croatia. It will be held from April 11 to 13\, 2024 in Split\, Croatia. \;
\nThis year marks the 500th anniversary of the death of Marko Marulić\, the father of Croatian literature\, a humanist writer praised for his philosophically stimulating works. Because of that\, we decided to dedicate this year's conference to Mediterranean humanism. The conference is open to submissions related to Humanism and Renaissance philosophy\, not necessarily directly related to the work of Marko Marulić.
\nIn addition to that special\, this year's theme\, the symposium is also open to two permanent topics: philosophy in the Mediterranean and globalisation challenges and multiculturalism in the Mediterranean region.
\nAccording to that\, the symposium program will be divided into the following thematic units:
\nInterdisciplinary research is welcomed. \;
\nLanguages of the conference

\nConference structure
