Requirements for Participation

Rhetoric of Religious Antiquity


Program Unit Type: Seminar
Accepting Papers? Yes

Call For Papers: The Rhetoric of Religious Antiquity Seminar will offer three sessions. The first two will be prearranged seminars, one exploring the ways in which critical spatiality theory informs the practice of sociorhetorical interpretation, and a second reviewing the forthcoming book by L. G. Bloomquist, _Understanding Texts_. The third session will focus on the exploration of texts from the Hebrew Bible using socio-rhetorical interpretation. Potential presenters should indicate in a proposal what aspects of socio-rhetorical interpretation they intend to utilize, and what they expect the fruitfulness of this exploration to be.
