This summer school is a multidisciplinary training on the history, spaces, and societies of the “imperial seas” bordering the Balkan Peninsula (Black Sea, Aegean Sea, Adriatic Sea), from the Roman Empire to the present day. It offers an introduction to maritime history and a critical examination of national and regional historiographies devoted to maritime affairs in the Balkans. The 2026 edition focuses on memory and heritage processes.
