Summary
General
conference information for participants who do not give lectures
or short presentations.
The international conference - organised by the Polish Academy
of Arts and Sciences (Cracow) and Institute of Philosophy and
Sociology of the Polish Academy of Sciences (Warsaw) to commemorate
the 400th anniversary of death of Faustus Socinus (Fausto Sozzini,
1539-1604), the prominent Italian reformer and religious thinker
- is a scholarly event.
During
the conference about 25-30 lectures and short presentations on
Faustus Socinus's person and doctrine as well as on later development
of the movement called Socinianism or Unitarianism will be presented.
Most
lectures and short presentations will be given in English, and
the rest in German, French and Italian. Presentations in the latter
languages will not be translated into English but the participants
will receive their English summaries. On September 26th, 2004
the conference participants will go to Lus³awice, a small
village where Socinus spent his last years, died and was buried,
and where in 1933 the American Unitarians erected a monument in
his honour.

please add a note "Conference Socinus") by July 1st,
2004. Lack of the payment by the date will mean that the participant
will not take part in the conference.
As far as
accommodation is concerned, we provide it for the conference
speakers only. The list of speakers has been already closed.
We suggest that other participants should look for accommodation
in the Jagiellonian University hotels ("Guest House",
"Bursa Pigonia") relatively cheap and situated in
the city centre (and thus close to the conference venue). Since
the hotel rooms are frequently unavailable they should be booked
much in advance (while booking a room please mention participation
in the conference organised by the Polish Academy of Arts and
Sciences). More information on the website: http://www.adm.uj.edu.pl
