Tsironis](https://tsironis.webpages.auth.gr/?page_id=291) (Professor at the School of Theology, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Harvard University CHS Fellow in Comparative Cultural Studies 2018-19) ### Synopsis The workshop approaches travel as a historical, social, and cultural practice that runs through human experience from the mythical journeys of antiquity to contemporary digital forms of movement. Travel will be explored not as a simple movement through space, but as an experience, as a bearer of meaning and memory, and as a way through which societies construct and narrate their civilization. Travel thus constitutes a thread of civilization: it shapes the social canvas on which various cultural expressions are inscribed and at the same time continually weaves new cultural horizons.
