Registration is open for the 2026 CANE Summer Institute!

Join us July 6-10, 2026 at Boston College High School for a week of mini-courses, workshops, reading groups, and free public lectures. There will also be an online component as well.

The theme for 2026 is Xenia, Community, and Solidarity in the Ancient World.  What makes up a polis or a res publica?  Who gets included, who gets excluded?  Can that boundary of inclusion and exclusion be crossed, and how?  What other kinds of communities do we see in the ancient or late antique world, like churches, mystery cults, or patronage networks.  How big is the gap between an ideal community and the nitty gritty every day workings of it in practice?  How does a community get created, and what is necessary for that to happen?
