Young Americanists’ Meeting is a single-day student seminar whose main focus is a multifaceted perspective of the studies of the United States. Bringing together literature, music, law, culture, and language, the event aims to provide a platform for scholarly discussion, research presentation, and student-to-student collaboration. The interdisciplinary scope of the meeting allows for a dialogical exchange of ideas, inspirational conversations, and it might possibly shed new light on the addressed topics. The seminar will feature three thematic panels focusing on the American experience, power and identity in the US, and media and technology in the context of social change.
