Our next Linguistics Circle of this year is coming up on Thursday, February 27, 7–9pm. The presenter for this meeting is Jackson Theune, a PhD candidate in New Testament, with a paper entitled “The Consolation of Israel: A Positive Appraisal Analysis of Luke 2:22–40.”
Anyone who is interested in joining is most welcome to join. As usual, there is a pre-Circle dinner gathering at 5pm. We will meet in Cullen Hall near the back doors (that face the centre of campus) and walk together to the Phoenix for dinner. For any questions or comments, please contact co-chairs Dr. Stanley Porter or Dr. David Yoon, or email CBLTE directly to get access to the paper in advance. We look forward to discussing appraisal theory in Luke’s Gospel!

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.
