Queer Theory and LGBT Studies in Religion |
Call for ProposalsThis Consultation welcomes proposals for individual papers or panels on all topics related to queer theory and LGBT studies in religion, particularly those focused on bisexual and/or transgender studies and on religions other than Christianity. We are especially interested in proposals that explore queer theoretical approaches to the following topics:
MissionThe core goals of this Consultation are to foster the application of queer theory and gender theory to the study of religion; to encourage comparative study of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender issues in religion; and to support the growth of bisexual studies and transgender studies in the field. We actively seek to explore the connections between queer theory in religion and complementary or overlapping fields of inquiry, such as postcolonial theory, critical race theory, disability theory, feminist theory, and cultural studies. Anonymity of Review ProcessProposals are anonymous to Chairs and Steering Committee Members until after final acceptance or rejection. Questions?Kent Brintnall Claudia Schippert Method of Submission |
