The Arosio Chair Launches ‘Call for Hope’ 2025

On the occasion of the Holy Year 2025, the Marco Arosio Chair of Advanced Medieval Studies of the Pontifical Athenaeum Regina Apostolorum is promoting an international Call for Papers.

The initiative aims at the publication of a collective volume entitled “Hope: Intangible Heritage of Humanity”.

The reflection intends to focus on the theme of hope, which is urgent in contemporary society marked by crises and uncertainties.

Scholars are invited to contribute by drawing upon the vast heritage of the Western speculative tradition, starting from Saint Augustine, to rediscover and actualize the “vivid and luminous flame of hope” across the multiple fields of knowledge.

An opportunity for academic research and discussion on a topic of fundamental spiritual and social importance.

The submission of Papers is by December 15, 2025.
