2014 Call for Papers: This year, the SBL Apostolic Fathers program unit especially invites papers reflecting the theme of “Women as Wives, Widows, Leaders, Legends, Mothers, and Martyrs” in the Apostolic Fathers and Other Early Christian Literature.
Papers may address these topics through historical, literary, theological, ethical, or socio-cultural lenses.
Secondarily, the program unit also welcomes other papers that focus upon any early Christian text(s) up to the year 250 (thus including but not being limited to the so-called “Apostolic Fathers”).
Paper proposals, which are due February 4, 2014, require an abstract of 300 words or less.
Only SBL members may submit and present papers.
