Seminar series on “Religion between the Personal and the Public: Contemporary Approaches”Our Director Monika Wohlrab-Sahr draws our attention to a seminar series, organised by the Department of Political Science and Sociology at Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona and the Centre for Religion, Conflict and Globalization at University of Groningen. This joint webinar series explores the relation between personal and public dimensions of religious identities, practices, and movements and brings together an innovative group of scholars with diverse theoretical perspectives and empirical foci spanning Europe, Latin America, and North America. The next presentation will be on 2 November, 3.00–4.00 p.m. (CET) with Sarah-Jane Page, Aston University, discussing “Religion, gender and sexuality: Embodiment as a key theoretical tool”. Already today we would like to announce that on 11 January 2022, Monika will give a presentation as part of this series.
