7th Dorushe Graduate Conference in Syriac Studies, Saint Louis University, May 1–2, 2020

The Department of Theological Studies at Saint Louis University and Dorushe invite proposals for the 7th Dorushe Graduate Student Conference on Syriac Studies, to be held at Saint Louis University (Saint Louis, MO) on May 1-2, 2020.

We welcome graduate student proposals for papers in all subjects, disciplines, and methodologies related to Syriac studies. In order to promote and diversify interaction at the conference, we invite proposals in two different categories:

• 20-minute conference papers
• 8- to 15-page dissertation interim reports.

Dissertation interim reports will be circulated in advance to facilitate discussion at the conference, and should introduce, at minimum, the project’s argument, method, and primary source material.

Christine Shepardson (The University of Tennessee-Knoxville) will deliver a keynote address.
