Warfare in Ancient Israel


Program Unit Type: Section
Accepting Papers? Yes

Call For Papers: The Warfare in Ancient Israel Section will sponsor three sessions in 2009: 1) The FIRST session will be an open session for which we especially encourage proposals for 20-minute papers exploring the portrayal or experience of injury, impairment, disease, and disability (broadly defined) within contexts of war and its aftermath in ancient Israel. This session will be co-sponsored with the Disability and Healthcare in the Bible and Near East program unit and include time for a panel discussion following the presentations. 2) The SECOND session will be an open session for which we invite 25-minute papers exploring the relationship among children, war, and biblical texts. We welcome papers that explore the theme of children and war through a wide range of disciplines, including historical, literary, artistic, anthropological, or archaeological approaches. This session will be co-sponsored with the Children in the Biblical World program unit. 3) The THIRD session will consist of invited papers and is not accepting proposals. For more information, contact Brad E. Kelle (bradkelle@pointloma.edu).
