The International Medieval Sermon Studies Society invites early career researchers and established scholars to submit proposals for 20-minute papers on the subject of Preaching and Gender. We encourage papers from all global areas and religious traditions for the approximate period 500-1500 CE. We welcome papers on themes including but not limited to:
- masculinities and femininities,
- gender roles and models,
- women preachers,
- preaching to or about men/women,
- contributions of queer theory and gender studies to sermon studies,
- gendered language and/or performance,
- intersection of gender with other categories (e.g., status, occupation, ethnicity, spirituality, age),
- gender fluidity and sexualities.
Proposals should include:
- Paper title
- A description of 300 words or less
- Presenter name and institutional affiliation, if applicable
The deadline for proposals is October 1, 2021. Proposals should be sent to Professor Steven McMichael ([email protected]).
