Our next meeting will take place this coming Thursday! David Mihalyfy will present a chapter of his dissertation:
“Superhuman Knowledge and Antebellum Anti-Traditional Biblical Criticism”
From the mid-1840s on, Americans who accepted the supernatural claims of mesmerism and spiritualism formed yet another constituency who were open to innovative ideas about the origin of the gospels.
DATE: Thursday, October 24
TIME: 12:00 – 1:15
PLACE: Swift 201
