Call for papers
Annual Conference 2012
Borders, Boundaries and Transgressions:
within and between religions
University of Winchester, UK
5-7 September
Scholars of religion and religions are invited to submit paper proposals
related to the topic. The question of what religion is, whether there is
such a thing, and, if so, what may constitute the borders and boundaries
are matters of dispute. Papers exploring these topics, broadly
conceived, including discussions of transgressions, whether within or
between traditions or the conceptualization of the debates, are welcome.
Confirmed speakers include:
Douglas Davies, University of Durham
Ron Geaves, Liverpool Hope University
Papers will be 20 minutes (with 10 minutes discussion).
Proposals in the form of a title, a short abstract (300 words max.), and
a brief biographical statement, including affiliation should be sent, by
Friday 1st June 2012, to:
Dr Paul Hedges, BASR Conference, Theology & Religious Studies,
University of Winchester,
SO22 4NR, UK or paul.hedges@winchester.ac.uk
Details of costs, accommodation, bursaries for postgraduate students,
etc. will be available shortly on the BASR website http://www.basr.ac.uk
