Requirements for Participation

Psychological Hermeneutics of Biblical Themes and Texts


Program Unit Type: Section
Accepting Papers? Yes

Call For Papers: Psychological Hermeneutics of Biblical Themes and Texts invites papers which interpret aspects of biblical studies through the lens of psychological models and perspectives. This section is the arena, therefore, for presentations and discussion dealing with the interface and mutual illumination of the sciences of Psychology and Biblical Studies. Papers will be welcomed which address specific biblical texts, narratives, pericopes; or biblical or biblical-theological themes, interpreted or illumined by means of psychological insights. Recognising the important contributions that the University of Tartu (Universitaet Dorpat in German) has made to the discipline of psychology for over 200 years, partly because of its geographical position-near Finland and the West-and its intellectual ambience-longstanding links with German scholars (see www.apa.org/monitor/jan02/estonia.html), we solicit contributions that match the objectives of our unit (as outlined above) and would welcome papers in German as well as English.
