Informal CFP: SSBMA
This session is sponsored by the Society for the Study of the Bible in the Middle Ages. The focus of the session is on connecting biblical exegesis to other genres. The time frame is the whole middle ages, but personally I would like to see it end up an Early Medieval session. If anyone has a paper or an idea they would love to share in Michigan please let me know. Also please feel free to let other people know about this lovely opportunity, all levels of experience are welcome.

New Book Series from Oxford University Press
OXFORD STUDIES IN LATE ANTIQUITY
Late Antiquity has unified what in the past were disparate disciplinary,
chronological, and geographical areas of study. In this spirit, Oxford
Studies in Late Antiquity will provide a venue for the finest new late
antique scholarship, with coverage extending from the late Roman
world to the Sassanid, Byzantine, and early Islamic and Carolingian
worlds. The series welcomes proposals relating to a wide array of
methodological approaches including, but not limited to, history, society,
culture, religion, literature, archaeology, art history, papyrology,
epigraphy,
numismatics, palaeography, demography, prosopography, linguistics,
gender studies, family history, and rhetorical and literary theory.
Series Editor: Ralph Mathisen is Professor of History, Classics, and
Medieval Studies at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
and the Editor of the Journal of Late Antiquity.
He can be contacted at ralphwm@illinois.edu or ruricius@msn.com.

Call for Papers: Capital and Corporal Punishment in Anglo-Saxon England
Call for Papers: Capital and Corporal Punishment in Anglo-Saxon England
44th International Congress on Medieval Studies
7-10 May 2009
Western Michigan University, Kalamazoo MI
Execution, mutilation, and bodily punishment permeate our understanding of
Anglo-Saxon judicial practice. In addition to the Old English law codes
that prescribe death and mutilation for criminal offenders, physical
penalties figure prominently in biblical exegesis and theological
discourse, in hagiographical and literary texts, in works of art, and in
the archaeology of the pre-Conquest landscape.
This session will offer an interdisciplinary approach to the role of
capital and corporal punishment in Anglo-Saxon England. We seek papers
that consider the legal, practical, theological, and ethical
considerations that surrounded the sentencing of offenders. Explorations
of individual penalties, specific texts, artistic or archaeological
evidence, or the wider context of physical punishment are also welcome.
Please submit abstracts for twenty-minute papers by 15 September to:
