Another SBL Paper Proposal Accepted!

Another SBL Paper Proposal Accepted!

Iโ€™ve had another paper I proposed accepted, this one for the Session on the Proliferation of Sessions about the Proliferation of Sessions at the Society of Biblical Literature Annual Meetings. Here is the title and abstract:

Title: Why the proposed requirement that the entirety of oneโ€™s paper be expressible, as regards its principle subject matter, in the title of oneโ€™s proposal, in the form of a run-on sentence, will not reduce the number of papers proposed, and thereby reduce the proliferation of sessions which is the concern of this session, and why the requirement that all proposals prove their academic gravitรฉ by including at least three foreign words will only result in pseudo-intellectuals defiantly shouting โ€œillegitimis non carborundumโ€ and including random words, particularly in German, used willkรผrlich und in einer Weise nichtwissenschaftlich.

Abstract: See title.
