7th PTOLEMAIC SUMMER SCHOOL

On behalf of the Czech Institute of Egyptology, Charles University, we would kindly like to invite colleagues to the 7^th Ptolemaic Summer School. The event will be held from Tuesday August 27 (morning) to Friday August 30 (early afternoon), 2019 in the Green Lecture Hall (“Zelená posluchárna”) on the first floor in the street Celetná 20.

The event languages will be English, French and German. We would welcome both discussions on specific (groups of) texts (problematic issues related to the interpretation, translation etc.), as well as papers. The basic time allotted for each discussion/presentation is 30 minutes, but should you need more time, please let us know in advance.

The conference room is equipped with a pc, allowing for PowerPoint presentations. In order to avoid presentational problems, we strongly suggest inserting both transliteration and hieroglyphs as images in your presentation, or to use a pdf version instead. If you are using Apple, please make sure to bring all necessary equipment to connect your notebook to the system.

There will be no registration fee to the summer school, but participants are asked to arrange and fund their own transport and lodging. We strongly recommend not waiting until the very last moment to book a hotel room as the tourist season peaks over summer in Prague.

We kindly ask all participants to provide both a title and short abstract related to the text(s) you which to discuss or present. Please send your abstract by May 10, 2019 to  . The file should include the title, brief abstract and your affiliation.

Should you have any questions regarding any aspect of the Ptolemaic Summer School, please do not hesitate to contact us at the same email address. More detailed information on the conference itself, but also practical information, can be found in the pdf.

Sincerely,

Filip Coppens, Dana Bělohoubková, Jiří Honzl and Dorotea Wollnerová
