Small Baltic Conversations: Architectures, Cities and Heritage of Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia
International Seminar

Given the vastness of the theme and the aim of the seminar, which is to present the architectural culture, addresses and issues of the heritage of the Baltic countries in a short time, the seminar will take place over six days organized by macro-themes to encourage interdisciplinary reflection. Given the smallness and fragmentation of the research conducted so far at the national level (normally limited to only one of the countries or to a single aspect of the built environment, such as infrastructures, etc.) and in order to present the topic most exhaustively, speakers belonging to different disciplinary sectors will participate to the seminar to discuss the main topics and prove useful tools to designers and researchers.

The focus of the seminar is the confrontation and dialectical exchange between the scholars of Sapienza and some of the protagonists of the contemporary cultural scene of Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia to make themes and perspectives known to a wider sector of the scientific community and, at the same time, intensify cultural relations. The seminar is divided into six complementary “short conversations”, dedicated to the architecture, cities and historical heritage that together make up the landscape of the three Baltic Republics.
