CALL FOR PAPERS – Histories of the End
In 2012 Relegere: Studies in Religion and Reception will publish a special issue dedicated to reception histories of the end times, however they might be imagined, in religious contexts. We welcome reception histories not only of Christian imaginaries of the book of Revelation, but also of the end of days in other traditions and in more diffuse settings such as the Western esoteric and New Age milieus.
Of course this can include treatments that touch on the end times Mayan calendars and 2012, zombie apocalypses, science fiction and nature apocalyptic, and so on and so forth.
Those interested in submitting to Relegere‘s “Histories of the End” should send an abstract of a maximum of 300 words to editors@relegere.org by December 1, 2011. The issue will appear in December 2012. Please distribute this Call for Papers widely.
