The research project gathers together a team from Western University “Vasile Goldis” (Oana Matei, Cristi Bente) and University of Bucharest (Sorana Coreneanu, Sorin Costreie, Doina Cristina Rusu). The 3 year project will explore several early modern utopias from the perspective of education and the reformation of human beings, in an interdisciplinary context, grouping together well-known texts with a number of unexplored and practically unknown sources of the same period (early modernity).
