Accepting Papers? Yes

Call For Papers: The section will sponsor two sessions, one of which is open and the other is for invited speakers. We will co-sponsor a third session with the Josephus Group. For the open session all proposals relating to the group’s topic will be considered. The closed session will feature invited speakers on the topic “Jacob Neusner and the Scholarship on Ancient Judaism.” We are also soliciting proposals for a sponsored session with the Josephus group on the topic “Josephus and the Rabbis.” In this joint session of the Josephus Group and the History and Literature of Early Rabbinic Judaism Section we seek presentations that will offer new insight into the connection between Josephus and the rabbis. Papers may deal with any aspect of the topic – literary, historical, religious, cultural, archaeological, etc. For this session, papers will be due in advance a month before the conference to allow for the preparation of a response.
