Hey there, thanks for your interest! This event is in-person only, so there will be no link to join online. Registration is open until 31 May, 2025. For more information, visit www.poly-unifrankfurt.de/events/summe... or dm us, we'll be happy to help!

Open to advanced students and doctoral researchers (Registration closes May 31, 2025).

Feel free to share this post with your students and colleagues!

The course explores how religious coexistence between 1500–1800 could both ignite and prevent conflict, from Augsburg to Suriname, from Ireland to the Kingdom of Kongo. We’ll investigate the logic and discourse of escalation: when does tension rise, and when does religion become a force for peace?

Thanks for the mention! 🙏

Thank you for the warm welcome! Well, this was long overdue and we are glad to be here. The other place (nice choice of words, by the way) has become outright toxic and intolerable.
