About the seminar
This thematic seminar series addresses issues relating to the life-cycle including age and ageing, intergenerational relationships, parenthood, rites of passage, childhood and youth. We are captive neither to chronology nor particular country, welcoming instead topics pertaining to any historical era or setting, and interdisciplinary perspectives. Our seminars offer a friendly and welcoming space for discussion for all, including postgraduates and early career scholars.
