The University of Innsbruck, in collaboration with the University of Naples Federico II and the Vrije
Universiteit Amsterdam, is pleased to announce the Aurora Summer School NeoLEMoS: Neo-Latin
for Early Modern Studies, which will take place at the University of Innsbruck from 26 July to 1
August 2026.
NeoLEMoS is designed for MA students and early-stage PhD candidates. It originates from the field
of Neo-Latin philology: its primary aim is to highlight the centrality of Neo-Latin as both tool and
medium for studying early modern culture from multiple disciplinary perspectives. Building on the
foundations of Neo-Latin philology, the school seeks to promote interdisciplinary methodologies for
exploring the complexities of early modern culture and society. For this, the school will bring together experts from various areas within early modern studies (history, book history, classical reception, gender studies, religious studies) to reflect on the role of Neo-Latin in shaping early modern and modern world.
