UPCOMING CONFERENCE 2025

We are pleased to invite you to the 7th International Conference on Arts and Humanities, organized by the International Centre for Studies of Arts and Humanities (ICSAH). After the success of the past events, shaped by a fruitful exchange of ideas, this year our aim is to explore the Conceptualization of the Chronological Time in the Various Cultures.

Time, one of the most fundamental dimensions of human experience, has been understood and conceptualized in a myriad way across cultures and eras. This interdisciplinary conference invites scholars, researchers, and practitioners from diverse fields to explore how chronological time has been interpreted, measured, and integrated into the philosophies, sciences, and practices of various civilizations.

Our goal is to foster a rich dialogue that examines time not only as a scientific phenomenon but also as a cultural, spiritual, religious, and philosophical construct.

Topics for submission include, but are not limited to:

Cultural and Historical Perspectives on Time: Cyclical vs. linear time in ancient and modern societies.

Time in mythologies, religious traditions, and indigenous knowledge systems.

Philosophical and Theoretical Frameworks: Theories of time in Western and Eastern philosophies.

Concepts of eternity, impermanence, and temporality.

Technological and Scientific Evolution of Time: Development of timekeeping technologies (from sundials to atomic clocks).

Time in physics: from Newton to Einstein and beyond.

Time in the Arts and Literature: Representations of time in literature, music, and visual arts.

Time as a narrative device in storytelling.

Modern and Global Perspectives: Time and globalization: standardization, synchronization, and time zones.

The impact of digital technologies and social media on perceptions of time.

Event-Based and Non-Linear Time: Indigenous and alternative frameworks for understanding time.

Ritualistic and sacred times in various cultures.
