JOINING THE WORLD PREHISTORIC CONGRESS

 

Dear colleagues and friends,

The experience of sharing debates and topics of common interest, the communication through _expression_ journal, has created a wonderful atmosphere of friendship and cooperation, overcoming boundaries between different disciplines. We are grateful to all those having actively participated in _expression_ (quarterly journal for conceptual anthropology) and in the UISPP-CISENP (The International Scientific Committee on the Intellectual and Spiritual Expressions of Non-Literate Societies), which are intimately related to each other. We are discovering how much we can learn about our society and ourselves thanks to our common involvement in the study of the intellectual and spiritual expressions of non-literate societies. 

 All of us are being enriched by such permanent encounter without barriers, with colleagues and friends from over 60 countries. Some of us attended the meetings held in Valcamonica, Italy, but, since the birth of _expression_, in the last four years, we never had the opportunity of a large gathering of all or most of us. The forthcoming World Prehistoric Congress offers such opportunity.

UISPP, the International Union of Prehistoric and Protohistoric Sciences, is organizing in Paris the forthcoming World Congress of Prehistory (3-9 June 2018). The CISENP session in the World Congress may be such opportunity: a global gathering of all of us, members of CISENP and authors and friends of _expression_.

 All of you are invited. It is our hope that even those not directly concerned with prehistory, artists, thinkers and operators, from other disciplines of the humanistic and social sciences, will participate in our session at this important event. Those wishing to present papers are invited to submit the title and a short summary before March 30, 2017. But also those wishing to attend, listen, meet colleagues or have the opportunity of participating in the debates, may enjoy this opportunity of spending a week together in Paris, meeting and getting to know each other. Those interested in participating or just in receiving further information are invited to reply to this email expressing interest and providing their mailing and postal addresses. We look forward to hearing from you.

Cordial regards and best wishes

Emmanuel Anati

(President, CISENP)

P.S. Those responding to this email may be invited by UISPP to become members. It is a privilege. The Congress is an event of UISPP members and a membership fee of €75.- may be  requested. CISENP and _expression_ do not request members any fees. Membership is a matter of conceptual participation.
