Requirements for Participation

Paul and Politics


Program Unit Type: Seminar
Accepting Papers? Yes

Call For Papers: Slavery, Resistance, and Freedom and Paul and Politics program units are co-sponsoring a session on the intersections of enslavement with gender, sexuality, and/or with empire. We invite papers on enslaved persons as persons who exercise agency and may engage in resistance, focused upon enslaved persons in Pauline materials and traditions, or on the various uses of and responses to Pauline materials in ancient or more contemporary communities. Papers that respond, at least in part, to Hector Avalos's Slavery, Abolitionism, and Ethics of Biblical Scholarship (and the scholarly and activist uses of Pauline materials described within it) are also particularly welcomed.
