Multimodal Landscapes of Mediterranean Antiquity. Workshop, 25-27 April 2024, Essen
The workshop “Multimodal Landscapes of Mediterranean Antiquity” was supported by and held at the College of Social Sciences and Humanities of the Ruhr University Alliance, Essen on 25-27 April 2024. Several members of Imagines, including both organisers, participated in this exploratory event which catalogued and study existing and remembered imageries of ancient pasts in the city of Essen. Co-organised by Senior Fellow Marta García Morcillo (Durham University, UK) and her tandem partner Florian Freitag(University of Duisburg-Essen), this experimental project united researchers from different fields to investigate cultural artifacts and signs on site, including advertising, branding, photographs, and street art as well as permanent, ephemeral, and vanished architectural elements and recorded events that establish connections between ancient Mediterranean cultures and Essen’s modern cityscape (19th to 21st centuries).

Lecture and Workshop: Greek and Roman Antiquity for Children and Young Adults, Potsdam 5 and 7 July 2023
LECTURE GIRL TO WOMAN: THE MYTH OF PERSEPHONE IN YOUNG ADULT FICTION Cristina Salcedo González Universidad Complutense de Madrid 5th July 2023 / 18.00 CAMPUS Am Neuen Palais House 9 / Room 1.02 This lecture investigates the representation of a very popular figure from ancient myth, Persephone, in young adult fiction, analysing a series of examples from a range of anglophone cultures and contexts (New Zealand, South Africa, UK and USA). It will be shown that Persephone can represent and cover a broad range of diverse actual issues, ranging from LGBTQI+ desire to eating disorders, from partner violence to parental mental health, from PTSD to caring responsibility. Through Persephone’s example it will be shown how relevant Greek mythology still is in contemporary cul- ture – and specifically in the entertainment and forma- tion of young adults in the anglophone world.
