Fourth Interdisciplinary International Conference ‘Text and Image’ 10–11 September 2026

Once again, scholars and artists will have the opportunity to exchange ideas, points of view, and intuitions in search of the intersection between different arts and between different disciplines in the humanities. The aim is to establish the event as a significant space for exploring the interaction between word and image and the different approaches to their aesthetic and cultural manifestations, attracting new participants from the country and abroad. This time, too, interdisciplinarity and intermediality will be a unifying principle. The previous editions of the conference show the diversity and productivity of this perspective and, above all, the opportunity to approach contemporary cultural sensibility through it.
