Nonbiblical Dead Sea Scrolls: Themes and Perspectives


Program Unit Type: Consultation
Accepting Papers? Yes

Call For Papers: Varieties of Religious Experience in the Scrolls. This unit welcomes proposals for papers on the non-biblical Dead Sea Scrolls and encourages critical discussion from a wide range of disciplines and perspectives. This session focuses on religious experience and related phenomena in the Scrolls. Topics under consideration include, but are not limited to, aspects of prayer, ritual, religious expression and sensory imagery, as well as the application of psychological and cognitive scientific approaches to the non-biblical Scrolls. Scholars are also invited to reflect on theoretical and methodological concerns related to the study of religion and its expression in the Scrolls.
