The Sacred Sea: Religious Practices in Maritime Context

Zadar, 2-5 May 2024
University of Zadar, Department of Ethnology and Anthropology
Pilgrimar project of Croatian Science Foundation

With this conference we want to gather scholars interested in both past and present religious practices within a maritime context, so that we can discuss, combine and compare different approaches, problems and perspectives towards the study of the connection between saints and the sea. We do not want to focus on any particular geographical and religious context, or moment in time, and we welcome different disciplinary approaches.
