Interdisciplinarni simpozij OBZORJA SOLINARSTVA – Interdisciplinary Symposium HORIZONS OF SALT-WORKING

Opis

Interdisciplinarni simpozij OBZORJA SOLINARSTVA Gosposka in Križevniška dvorana, ZRC SAZU, Ljubljana, 13. marec 2026

Raziskovalni projekt »Zrno soli, kristaliziranje sobivanja: solinarstvo kot izkustvena okoljska modrost« obravnava tradicionalno solinarstvo – obrt pridelave morske soli, kot utelešeno praktično modrost. Solinarstvo v severni Istri označujeta predvsem slikovita pokrajina in bogastvo dediščine, redkeje ga dojemamo z vidika prepletanja med človeškimi in nečloveškimi dejavniki. Projektni sodelavci in sodelavke v sklopu projektnega raziskovanja stremimo k odstiranju razumevanja solinarstva kot odraza sobivanja človeka in okolja. Prav okolje ponuja in prenaša svojo modrost na človeka, ki jo z izkušanjem sčasoma tudi utelesi.

V sklopu pričujočega simpozija, ki so mu organizatorji nadeli široko ime Obzorja solinarstva, želijo članice in člani raziskovalne skupine v poslednjem letu skupnega raziskovanja izsledke predstaviti zainteresiranemu strokovnemu in znanstvenemu občinstvu, še zlasti pa medsebojno prediskutirati naše izsledke. Dogodek bo namreč služil kot korak na poti do sklepne projektne publikacije in zaokroženja projekta.

Dogodek je organiziran v sklopu raziskovalnega projekta “Zrno soli, kristaliziranje sobivanja: solinarstvo kot izkustvena okoljska modrost” (ARIS J6-50196), ki ga izvajata ZRS Koper in ZRC SAZU.

Interdisciplinary Symposium HORIZONS OF SALT-WORKING Gosposka and Križevniška Halls, ZRC SAZU, Ljubljana (Slovenia), March 13, 2026

The research project “Grain of Salt, Crystallising Cohabitation: Salt-making as Experiential Environmental Wisdom” approaches traditional salt-working – the craft of producing sea salt – as embodied practical wisdom. Salt-working in north Istria is characterized primarily by its picturesque landscape and rich heritage and is rarely perceived from the perspective of the intertwining of human and non-human factors. As part of the project research, the project collaborators strive to uncover the understanding of salt-working as a reflection of the cohabitation of the human and the environment. It is the
environment that offers and transmits its wisdom to humans, who eventually embody it through experience.

As part of the present symposium, which the organizers have given the broad name of Horizons of Salt-working, the members of the research group wish to present – in the last year of joint research – the project results to an interested professional and scientific audience and especially discuss it among
each other. The event will serve also as a step on the path to concluding the project publication and the completion of the project.

The event is organized as part of the research project “A Grain of Salt, Crystallizing Coexistence: Salt-Making as Experiential Environmental Wisdom” (ARIS J6-50196), carried out by ZRS Koper and ZRC SAZU.
