Mapping Memory: Tradition, Texts, and Identity


Program Unit Type: Group
Accepting Papers? Yes

Call For Papers: The Mapping Memory Group solicits proposals that seriously engage some aspect of memory theory and that apply memory theory to problems in biblical interpretation, ancient Judaism (includding rabbinics), and early Christianity. We are interested in all branches of memory theory and in related approaches that seriously engage memory as an analytical category. We are particularly interested in papers that highlight the interface between memory and performance in the ancient context, or that highlight theoretical problems in the interface between memory and history/historiography. Contact Tom Thatcher with questions or comments at tom.thatcher@ccuniversity.edu All proposals must be formally submitted through this website before they can be accepted.
