Recovering Female Interpreters of the Bible


Program Unit Type: Section
Accepting Papers? Yes

Call For Papers: There will be two sessions: 1) Invited panelists reviewing "Voices Long Silenced: Women Biblical Interpreters through the Centuries," by Joy Schroeder and Marion Ann Taylor (Westminster John Knox, 2022). 2) “Colonialism, Feminism, and Justice in Women’s Biblical Interpretation and Translation: Papers in Honor of Pandita Ramabai (1858-1922).” 2022 is the centenary of the death of Indian activist and biblical translator Pandita Ramabai Dongre Sarasvati. We invite proposals for papers on Ramabai and on other female biblical interpreters or translators working prior to the 1920s. We are especially interested in papers on female interpreters active in colonial settings or whose biblical interpretation addressed colonialism, racism, and gender-based violence.
