How have the scriptural traditions of Islam and Christianity been interpreted in the modern age? In particular, what challenges have been posed to the Bible and the Qur’an by developments in modern science and technology?
These core questions will be addressed in this multi-disciplinary colloquium, for which abstract submissions are invited by the closing date of 31 December 2017. Funding for UK travel and conference accommodation is available for successful submissions.
