Requirements for Participation

Biblia Arabica: The Bible in Arabic among Jews, Christians, and Muslims


Program Unit Type: Consultation
Accepting Papers? Yes

Call For Papers: The Biblia Arabica Consultation is planning two sessions for the AM in   Boston, under the general Heading, 'Bible Translations in the  Mediterranean and the Near Eastern worlds, from Medieval to Modern Times'. We invite papers on Bible translations not only into Arabic  but also into other languages--for example Aramaic, Syriac, Greek,  Latin, Coptic, Persian and Ethiopian Languages, and from all religious   traditions--in order to broaden the view of cultural and religious contexts against which our work of studying Bible translations into  Arabic can be discussed. The sessions will be a combination of solicited papers and open proposals. We would like to encourage  established scholars in the field of Bible translation, alongside advanced PhD students and beginning scholars, to propose papers about their current work.
