The main theme of the 11th Coffee Break Conference is “Arranged marriages between disciplines”. The title is self-explanatory: each panel examines an aspect of Asian cultural and intellectual history by adopting the perspective of two or more disciplines. In some cases, the success of the marriage might not be immediately evident. Yet, the organizers believe that such engagements can be fruitful: by prompting speakers to think in broader terms, the conference aims to foster intellectual exchange and promote cross-fertilization between different academic fields. Disciplines involved in the debate are philology, linguistics, religious studies, anthropology, art history, philosophy, gender studies and literary studies.

Abstract
The main theme of the 11th Coffee Break Conference is “Arranged marriages between disciplines”. The title is self-explanatory: each panel examines an aspect of Asian cultural and intellectual history by adopting the perspective of two or more disciplines. In some cases, the success of the marriage might not be immediately evident. Yet, the organizers believe that such engagements can be fruitful: by prompting speakers to think in broader terms, the conference aims to foster intellectual exchange and promote cross-fertilization between different academic fields. Disciplines involved in the debate are philology, linguistics, religious studies, anthropology, art history, philosophy, gender studies and literary studies.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
