A Reportage about the Research Cluster: The Past for the Present, 2018

<p>The cluster&nbsp;<strong>The Past for the Present &ndash; International Research and Educational Programme</strong>&nbsp;has been established by the Faculty of &ldquo;Artes Liberales&rdquo; of the University of Warsaw, Fakult&auml;t f&uuml;r Sprach- und Literaturwissenschaften of the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universit&auml;t M&uuml;nchen, and Dipartimento di Storia Culture Civilt&agrave; and Dipartimento di Filologia Classica e Italianistica of the Universit&agrave; di Bologna. We aim at developing the studies into the ancient tradition as a marker of transformations underway across the world. A collaboration with schools and dissemination of research results are very important to us. We wish to acknowledge the projects&nbsp;<em><strong>Our Mythical Childhood</strong></em>&nbsp;(ERC Consolidator Grant) and&nbsp;<strong><em>Chasing Mythical Beasts</em></strong>&nbsp;(Alexander von Humboldt Foundation Alumni Award) in the developement of our endeavours. This short reportage presents the main ideas of our work.</p> <p>Video by Krzysztof Korwin-Piotrowski,&nbsp;idea and scholarly supervision by Katarzyna Marciniak, English&nbsp;proofreading by Elżbieta Olechowska.&nbsp;</p> <p>The movie is available also here:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HfypV5PUMUc&amp;t=1s">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HfypV5PUMUc&amp;t=1s</a>.&nbsp;</p>
