Requirements for Participation

Gospel of Mark


Program Unit Type: Section
Accepting Papers? Yes

Call For Papers: The Gospel of Mark Section is a forum for scholars and graduate students exploring all aspects of and approaches to research and interpretation of the Gospel of Mark, including (but not limited to) historical, exegetical, theological, and literary studies, but especially the investigation of new questions, new areas of inquiry, and new strategies for reading Mark. For the 2024 international meeting in Amsterdam, the Gospel of Mark Section is soliciting proposals in three areas: (1) Mark in Context, either the context/s of production (e.g., Judaism, Galilee vs. Rome, etc.) or the antique context/s of reception (e.g. particular locations or groups); (2) an open session on any aspect of the Gospel of Mark consistent with the Section’s mission; and (3) the Synoptic Gospels and Gospel of Mark program units also invite papers for a joint session on "The Teaching of Jesus in Dutch and Flemish Art." Works that depict either Jesus’ teachings (e.g. parables, Sermon on the Mount/Plain) or Jesus as teacher may be less common than nativity or passion scenes, but they are no less evocative and challenging. This session will offer opportunities for the exploration of the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke as represented in, experienced through, and illuminated by the rich tradition of Biblical themes in Dutch and Flemish art.
