Call for Papers for 2008

We invite submission of papers on any topic related to Johannine literature for our open session at the 2008 meeting. For the second session, we plan to continue our 2007 discussion of the interplay between the Johannine literature and the broader Mediterranean milieu. We are calling for proposals that explore how the Johannine literature interacted in the world of antiquity from the first through the sixth centuries. Arenas of interaction might include texts, worship practices, creedal statements, art or material culture.
