Psychology and Biblical Studies

 

Call for Papers

Psychology and Biblical Studies Section

SBL Annual Meeting, Atlanta, Georgia • Nov 20-23, 2010

We invite any proposals for papers that address Biblical texts, themes, characters, and/or readers using the concepts and interpretive tools of any field of psychology.

We would particularly welcome proposals in two areas: the biblical concept of "soul" and its relationship to psychology, including recent studies in neuro-psychology; and practical applications of a psychological approach to scripture and biblical texts in academic, religious, or community contexts.

Call for Papers is now closed; watch for description of November sessions.
