A workshop on the reception history of the biblical figures Sarah and Hagar will take place on 7 and 8 November from 12 noon at the Liborianum. National and international scholars, for example from the USA, the Netherlands and Austria, will discuss examples of the reception history of both figures. The lectures on 7 November start at 12 noon and will be held exclusively in English, the lectures on 8 November in German. Participation via Zoom is also possible.
The workshop will not only focus on ancient texts, but also on artistic adaptations of the Hagar figure or reflections on the religious pedagogical processing of the biblical texts.
The event will be led by Prof. Dr Claudia Bergmann from the Institute for Protestant Theology at Paderborn University in cooperation with Prof. Dr Thomas R. Blanton IV from John Caroll University.
