Medieval architecture, construction, and mobility – buildings as testimonies and sources

The presentation explores medieval architecture, construction materials, and architectural
expressions as sources of medieval mobility in the Baltic Sea region in medieval times. These
sources contain a multitude of testimony to the theme. The field is interesting since it crosses the
boundaries of relatively distant disciplines such as spectrometry, applied physics, archaeology,
semiotics, and history. The talk contemplates the possibilities for theoretical and cross-disciplinary perspective and illustrates cases and evidence from ongoing research projects.

Students on the move in early modern Sweden

The presentation focuses on the student mobility between the universities of Uppsala,
Turku, and Tartu during the so-called Age of Greatness. Previous research on Swedish
student mobility has mostly focused on the journeys made outside the realm. However,
migrating between the universities within the realm was far more common after several
universities were established in the different parts of the realm in the 17th century. Who were
these students, why did they migrate between universities in Sweden, and exactly how
common was it?
