Syrologentag (Conference of German speaking Syriac scholars) in Göttingen, 16-17 December 2011

The Department of Ecumenical Theology and Oriental Church and Mission History is cordially inviting all who are interested to the German Syrologentag 2011. From 16 to 17 December the Syrologentag series shall be continued at the Georg-August-Universität (University of Göttingen). The Syrologentag has proved to be a fruitful discussion forum for syrologists as well as scholars interested in Syriac language, literature and history. We would like to build on this tradition and offer a possibility for intensive exchange.

We welcome contributions from all fields of Syriac studies. Presentations of papers should not exceed 20 minutes; they will be
followed by 10 minutes of discussion. We are glad to help you with the organization of accommodation and meals if desired. You are kindly requested to send us your application as well as the title and a summary of your paper (c. 100 words) until 10 October by post or by email. The conference language is German.
