On October 19 and 20, international scholars will gather at ECLA of Bard to discuss recent discoveries and emerging research on early Pythagorean number theory beyond disciplinary boundaries and time periods, in a framework that grapples with the typical segregation of academic disciplines. The workshop participants will aim to build an innovative and integrative account of one important legacy of Pythagorean science in cultural production.

You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
