CALL FOR PAPERS OPEN UNTIL NOVEMBER 1, 2025<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are pleased to invite presentation proposals for the international travelling conference Travellers of the Sea<\/em>, exploring maritime history, marine archaeology, and ethnology from an interdisciplinary perspective. The event will take place across three cities\u2014Turku, Helsinki, and Tallinn\u2014and will bring together scholars and students to discuss sea travel in all its forms, from historical passenger voyages to the movement of ideas, cultures, and living beings. The conference is jointly organised by the Finnish Maritime History Association, Finnish Maritime Archaeological Society, Estonian Maritime Museum, and Maritime Centre Forum Marinum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The theme is broadly defined: travelling by sea, across all time periods and regions. We welcome papers on topics including,  but not limited to: passenger trade, migration and mobility, and travel by sailors, ideas, and cultural influences. For example, presentations on passenger services abroad, travelling conditions on exploration and refugee voyages, and moving military troops by sea are very welcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We encourage anyone \u00a0working with topics somehow relating to the sea and maritime travel to send proposals \u2013 previous experience with maritime history, maritime archaeology, or maritime ethnology specifically is not necessary. Individual papers, as well as full panels of 3\u20134 papers, are invited. Please send proposals (up to 500 words)\u00a0 by email to conference secretary Emilia Syv\u00e4salmi (talous@smhy.fi).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Submission deadline: November 1, 2025
Submit via<\/strong>: talous@smhy.fi (Emilia Syv\u00e4salmi, Conference Secretary)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Accepted participants will be notified by December 5, 2025. A selection of conference papers may be submitted for publication in the peer-reviewed journal Nautica Fennica<\/em> (editorial decisions made by the journal board).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please note the conference will be held in person, and hybrid participation cannot be guaranteed. The official language is English, except on June 11, when the new researchers\u2019 meeting will be held in Finnish and Swedish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
