<div style="word-wrap:break-word">The Oxford English Dictionary has named “post-truth” the word of 2016. The Premodernist Group hopes to look at different historical contexts/cases where generally accepted “truths” were somehow rendered unimportant, whether
deliberately or unintentionally, thereby providing possible historical comparanda for our more recent “post-truth” moments. Between them, our interdisciplinary panel will speak to experiences Eastern and Western, modern and non-modern. Each panelist will
talk for about 10 mins, offering some general thoughts that might somehow relate a “post-truth” perspective to their own particular area of interest. General discussion will then follow. We warmly invite all those interested to attend. </div>
