We are delighted to welcome Nicolas Moron as our keynote speaker for this symposium. Moron is Associate Professor of Musicology at the University of Rouen-Normandy and a member of CÉRÉdI. A specialist in Sergei Prokofiev’s work, he is currently preparing his Habilitation à Diriger des Recherches on the digital edition of the composer’s correspondence.
His keynote is entitled 'All the letters I have to write are suffocating me': Methodological and Hermeneutical Pathways in the Digital Edition of an Epistolary Deluge.
We particularly encourage submissions from early-career researchers working with digital methods, scholars exploring interdisciplinary approaches to music history, researchers working on related archival digitization projects and international perspectives on Franco-Russian cultural exchange.
Broad topics might include, but are not limited to, the following:
1. Digital methodologies and archive innovation
2. Prokofiev and Parisian cultural networks
3. Experimental modernism and archival evidence
4. Broader Parisian cultural landscapes
Interested participants should submit a proposal of no more than 250 words, along with a 150-word biography, institutional affiliation, and a brief statement of any digital humanities experience or interests, to prokofievstudies@gmail.com. Bursary support is available for students and independent scholars; please indicate if you wish to be considered for this in your abstract submission. The symposium will be conducted in English and French. Each paper will be allocated 20 minutes, followed by a 10-minute Q&A session.
