Requirements for Participation

Pericope: Scripture as Written and Read in Antiquity


Program Unit Type: Seminar
Accepting Papers? Yes

Call For Papers: The recurring question during the Pericope sessions is whether the search for the oldest extant delimitation markers of the biblical text helps us to understand the biblical tradition in a better way. In the form of seminars, workshops, and papers the participants will discuss various methods of analyzing delimitation markers. It will be discussed whether the delimitations in the ancient manuscripts reflect and/or depend on ancient exegesis. In addition the question may be addressed whether this testimony from ancient exegesis is of any help for modern exegesis. Those colleagues who wish to discuss questions regarding the methodology are also invited to submit a proposal. Sessions are in the form of seminars, workshops and papers.
