Co-Sponsorship Annual Meeting 2023

Animals and Religion Unit and History of Christianity Unit

Call for Proposals

On the 800th anniversary of St. Francis and the first nativity scene to include live animals (1223 C.E.), we invite proposals that explore the various roles accorded to animals in imagining the Christian story. We particularly welcome proposals that complicate and challenge the ways in which the term ‘animal’ is understood, both in nonhuman and human incarnations.
