More than a memorial celebration, this meeting will be a moment of research and debate around one of the most enduring monuments of the Western linguistic pedagogy.

Join us from June 2nd to the 5th for the International Conference on the 500th anniversary of Manuel Álvares, S.J. (1526–1583): teacher, grammarian and humanist

In addition to being a landmark in Latin teaching, Álvares’s work generated profound pedagogical and epistemological debates.
