Linguistics Circle

The presenter for this month is Dr. Sung Min Park, PhD graduate, adjunct faculty, and research fellow, with a paper entitled “Sacred Language Ideologies in the Scribal Practices of the Yahad Tradition and the Jerusalem Tradition.”  As usual, there is a pre-Circle dinner gathering at 5pm. We will meet in Cullen Hall near the back doors and walk together to the Phoenix for dinner.

The Linguistics Circle is a monthly gathering of students, faculty, and others who are interested in biblical linguistics. Each gathering, we have a discussion of a biblical linguistic topic, based on a paper presented by someone in our community—either a student, professor, or a volunteer or invited guest. Anyone with an interest in biblical linguistics is welcome to join, regardless of experience or knowledge in the field. To join, email cblte@mcmaster.ca to gain access to the CBLTE (Centre for Biblical Linguistics, Translation, and Exegesis) site where announcements and papers are posted.
