As the representative for the Søren Kierkegaard Society to the Society of Biblical Literature, I thought I’d announce the session for this year’s national conference in Atlanta. It’s a great lineup of speakers and topics. ForKierkegaard those coming to AAR/SBL and with interest in the intersection of Kierkegaard and issues in contemporary biblical interpretation, I hope you’ll join us.
