Johannine Literature Section

Program Unit Description: Our mission is to address issues and concerns having to do with the analysis and interpretation of the Johannine literature--a major component of the Christian Scriptures, encompassing for our purposes the Gospel of John and the three Johannine letters. The section has historically been committed to highlighting new voices and issues in the field.

Call for Papers for 2013: In Baltimore the Johannine Literature Section will host three sessions. Two are by invitation and deal with "Johannine Scholarship Today - Global and Local Perspectives" and "Ethics in Johannine Literature." The third session is open and we invite paper proposals on any subject related to the Gospel and Letters of John.

Steering Committee Co-Chairs:
Prof. Kasper B. Larsen (kbl--at--teo.au.dk)
Prof. Jo-Ann A. Brant (joannab--at--goshen.edu)
