It is almost 3 years since I attended this summer school and I still sometimes consult my notes from back then, that's how packed it was with inspiring lectures and discussions. Highly recommended to anyone interested in the historical study of concepts, discourse or language!

I had the joy of teaching at this summer school twice and participated myself as a PhD researcher in 2017. Can only recommend. It is intellectually stimulating and really well organized.
Also Helsinki in summer is my favorite city in Europe 🤩
