Call for Papers
Narrative dominates the literary landscape of the Old Testament. But narrative is not a closed literary form. Among other things, it traffics in techniques comparable to other forms of discourse in the Old Testament. And narrative welcomes interpretive dialogue with other forms of discourse in the Old Testament through its integration of and juxtaposition to diverse types of texts. The 2024 Old Testament Study Group will explore the dynamics of Old Testament narrative from theoretical and literary perspectives.
We welcome proposals for papers on the theme (200 words max.). Paper titles and proposals should be sent to the group’s co-chair, Chris Ansberry (ansberrycb@gcc.edu), by 1 December 2023.
The full program will be published in the new year.
The Old Testament Study Group will meet concurrently with Tyndale Fellowships other Study Groups from 3-5 July 2024 at High Leigh Conference Centre, Hoddesdon, UK.
