Arguing for the perennial condition of difference and paradox across the various histories, polities, forms and expressions that converge in this region, Mediterranea is intended as a discursive, analytic, poetic and critical space that hosts, affirms and problematizes what is often identified as a hybrid narrative. Voices and approaches that come together in this space include philosophers, historians, artists, poets, performers and critics; as well as pedagogues, sociologists and political theorists. A dynamic multiplicity bringing together the various peoples that have come to identify themselves with one sea.
