CURA Colloquium
Zirkle's working paper chapter explores how in both a 19th-c German context and a 21-c US context, scriptural hermeneutics have been weaponized to justify imperial violence against religious minorities. This chapter will be appearing in a forthcoming Routledge volume, Is There a Bomb in this Text? Exploring Relationships Between Scripture and Violence, eds. Julia Snyder and Daniel H. Weiss.
Reading the paper in advance is required for attendance. Email cura@bu.edu for a copy.
