Redescribing Christian Origins


Program Unit Type: Seminar
Accepting Papers? Yes

Call For Papers: Redescribing Christian Origins (RCO) will be hosting three sessions at the 2022 Annual Meeting.

Two of our sessions will address the themes of ethics, research methodology and historiography. The first, Redescribing Historiography: Legacies and Possibilities, asks how we can best approach the study of religion in an inclusive and ethical manner. The second, Transgressing “Canon”: Redescribing Categories and Approaches, challenges categories of canon and canonicity.

Our third session will review Robyn Faith Walsh’s recent book The Origins of Early Christian Literature: Contextualizing the New Testament within Greco-Roman Literary Culture (Cambridge University Press, 2021).

Our panels will include a combination of invited speakers and panelists selected through the CFP process. Please see more details on each of these sessions at the RCO website: https://redescribingxo.com

RCO subscribes to SBL’s Professional Conduct Policy and is committed to SBL’s core values, particularly those of critical inquiry, inclusivity, accountability, and professionalism.
