Call For Papers: Session 1: Violence and the Household. Topics can range broadly in terms of geography and time period, and might include discussions of violence against women and slaves, and/or discussions of what might be considered violent imagery (on domestic ware, frescoes, ceramics) within the domus/oikos. Held jointly with Social History of Formative Christianity and Judaism. Session 2: First Martyrs. We welcome proposals about how stories of a community’s first martyr help to consolidate communities and affect their theological and political outlook toward violence.
