Call For Papers: In 2021 our program unit is sponsoring three sessions: 1) A session on biblical exegesis and the development of Christological doctrine in fifth-century authors and texts; 2) A panel discussion of Andrew Radde-Gallwitz’s Gregory of Nyssa’s Doctrinal Works: A Literary Study (OUP, 2018); and 3) A session on figural or allegorical exegesis of Homeric, Jewish, and Christian texts in antiquity. In addition, we running a joint session with the program unit "Early Exegesis of Gen. 1-3" on the role of Genesis 1-3 in the fifth-century Christological controversies. All of our papers accepted for the 2020 annual meeting were deferred to the 2021 meeting, so we are not accepting new proposals this year.
