Sinophone Europe Conference

Sinophone Europe Conference

The first Sinophone Europe Conference will take place on December 13-14, 2024 at the University of Florence.

The primary goal of this conference is to bring new insights about European Sinophone studies, as well as to bridge the gap between researchers from Europe who explore the Sinophone “from” Europe and those who investigate the Sinophone “in” Europe, with a particular emphasis on the latter. Together, we will delve into what we call “Sinophone Europe” – a complex space where cultures, histories, and identities converge, intertwine, and evolve. The conference will take place on 13-14 December 2024, in Florence, Italy. The initiators of this project are Valentina Pedone (University of Florence) and Rebecca Ehrenwirth (University of Applied Sciences/SDI Munich).
