HUMANITIES RESEARCH CENTER
The Humanities Research Center supports intellectual investigations and explorations of all facets of human creative endeavor. Currently, the Humanities Research Center is actively involved in research in the Humanities. HRC emphasizes the comparative analysis of world civilizations in different regions and historical periods.
We believe that the study of the humanities possesses unique and remarkable powers to reveal underlying structures of knowledge. We are focused on the intersections of difference, and we seek to understand what constitutes the nature of our understanding of how people attempt to communicate essential human experiences.
We particularly welcome proposals addressing: a) Thematic applications in Literature, Life Writing, Cinema, Sociology and Psychology. b) Interdisciplinary and comparative analysis in World Civilizations;
