2020-02-09

The 5th Symposium of IASSRT will take place from 29th September to 4th October 2020 in Italy, while mainly in Trento. The theme of the symposium will be "Textiles on the Silk Roads: from Medieval to Industrial Periods". This symposium invites Italian scholars who will explore the rise of the silk industry in Italy, including the Medici patronage, Italy’s link to the Orient, and the role of cathedrals as repositories of early textiles. The symposium also seeks contributions from international scholars on the use of textiles in diplomatic relationships among regions and various social groups or institutions; the transmissions and influences of textile patterns, techniques, and meanings between East and West; the textile traditions and innovations along the Silk Roads; and the global rise of silk industries as an outcome of Silk Roads interactions.
