Knowledge is one, just as reality and truth are one, and we desire complete, multi-layered, complex cognition. However, in such an understanding of interdisciplinarity, when going beyond fragmented, disciplinary views of the world, full autonomy of scientific methods is still necessary. And for this we need disciplines, because they are a form of cultivating the autonomy of methods.
We cordially invite all doctoral students of the Doctoral School of Humanities interested in the subject to a meeting with Prof. Adam Izdebski (Professor of Human Ecology, Max Planck Institute of Geoanthropology), winner of the ERC Synergy Grants competition, who, together with his research team, has been crossing the boundaries between different areas of knowledge for years. The meeting will inaugurate the next edition of doctoral seminars conducted at SDNH entitled „Boundless. The limits of cognition in archaeology.“
The meeting will take place on Monday, 20 October, 2025, at 3 p.m., in the Faculty of Archaeology building (Main School) in room 211.
