Welcome to the Autumn 2017 series of Athens Greek Religion Seminars.

Programme

The database PRAGMATA contains material from more than a hundred years of Swedish archaeological activity in Greece.

PRAGMATA includes an inventory of archaeological materials, storage, contextual information, including photos and links to scanned and annotated excavation documentation, as well as information from older databases converted to a modern database format.

The Swedish Institute at Athens arranges regular educational programmes for postgraduate students enrolled at universities in Sweden.
Among the programmes, which are always organized in co-operation with a Swedish university, The Archaeology and History of Ancient Greece: A Travelling Seminar has the longest tradition going back all the way to the Institute’s founding in 1948. It is nowadays given biannually, and from 2014 onwards during the autumn semester. Every second year the Institute gives a thematic course, which during the last couple of years has focused on continuity in cultic practices from Antiquity up to the present.

FORSKNINGSSTIPENDIER 2017/2018 VID SVENSKA INSTITUTET I ATHEN

Styrelsen för Svenska institutet i Athen ledigförklarar härmed institutets forskningsstipendier för höstterminen 2017 och vårterminen 2018. Stipendierna är avsedda för dem som ägnar sig åt vetenskapligt och självständigt studium av ämnen med koppling till institutets verksamhet som förutsätter vistelse i Grekland.

Is an educational program the Swedish Institute at Athens organizes in collaboration with the universities in Stockholm and Linköping.

At the moment the international and interdisciplinary two-week course “Confronting the Classics”, hosted by the Swedish and Dutch institutes in Rome and Athens, is in the Greek capital, after a stimulating and rewarding week in Rome.

The Swedish Institute’s nine-week archaeological course is now in its seventh week. Five students: Madelene Holm from Gothenburg University, Sara Eriksson and Christian Stelius from Lund University, and Adam Norberg and Angelica Landgren from Stockholm University are right now in Thessaloniki together with their teachers having  been earlier to the Argolid, Delfi, Crete and Santorini among other places. The rationale of the course is to give the students an opportunity to see as many archaeological sites and museums as possible.

The Swedish Institute and the Swedish School at Athens participated in the Multilingual Festival for the celebration of the European Day of Languages, at Technopolis, Athens, Saturday 24 September 2016, 10.00 to 15.00.

The multilingual festival and its programme that was full of events and happenings was organized jointly with twelve other countries represented by their institutes and embassies, all members of EUNIC (European Union National Institutes for Culture) with the aim to promote language learning.
