The From Christianisations and Islamisations to (Hetero)Europeanisations, organized by the H-Net Humanities & Social Sciences Online will take place from 31st March to the 2nd April 2016 at the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences in Sofia, Bulgaria. The conference will cover areas like to gather relevant insights for drafting typologies and chronologies of: 1) the Europeanisation of a number of national collective identities from (what have been or have become) the European margins, through analysing a number of indicative cases of transformation, (re)use and oblivion of cultural-historical heritage in the artistic, scholarly and two more kinds of discourses (see hereafter), since the 18th century till our days; 2) phenomena that can be considered re-active towards Europeanisation; 3) contacts and mutual (non)interest and preconceptions between cultures from the margins.
