We have had to make changes to the schedule for the ReLACS 2020 meeting.

 

Due to the current situation, we will not be able to host an in-person gathering at the University of Missouri – Columbia. Nevertheless (the good news!), Ellen Muehlberger, Professor of Christianity in Late Antiquity at the University of Michigan, is eager to give her keynote lecture “Suspicion, Projection, Conviction: Making Enemies in Early Christianity” on Friday, November 6, 4:00 pm CST, 4:00 pm CST/5:00 pm EST with Virtual Happy Hour to follow.

​

Professor Muehlberger’s talk will focus on the phenomenon of late ancient Christians who, becoming convinced their neighbors were keeping secrets—whether hidden identities, covert practices, or mysterious alliances—believed them to be imposters.  Professor Muehlberger has published on a wide range of topics and her most recent monograph, Moment of Reckoning: Imagined Death and Its Consequences in Late Ancient Christianity, appeared last year with Oxford University Press. Professor Muehlberger’s talk is sponsored by the Department of Ancient Mediterranean Studies of the University of Missouri and the Department of Modern and Classical Languages of Missouri State University in association with the Regional Late Antiquity Consortium Southeast (ReLACS).

​

We have plans to reschedule the workshop sessions to be in-person at a future date. Thank you so much for your patience and understanding - we hope to see you on Zoom on Friday, Novemember 6th!
