The advanced seminar at the Institute for Protestant Theology at Paderborn University is offering two lectures in English on the biblical figures of Sarah and Hagar in the coming summer semester. The events will take place in cooperation with the Centre for Comparative Theology and Cultural Studies (ZeKK) as well as lecturers and students from John Carroll University and the Tuohy Center for Interreligious Understanding from the USA, who will be connected digitally for part of each evening.
On Wednesday, 7 May, the lecture series will begin at 6.15 pm in room L1.201 with an introductory presentation and joint reading of the texts from the Koran that refer to Hagar. The first part, which will be led by Prof Dr Zishan Ghaffar from the ZeKK, will take place exclusively in presence. The Zoom room will open at 7.30 pm, and German and American guests are welcome to attend the lectures by Ghaffar and Dr Semiha Topal from John Carroll University. At the end of the event there will be time for questions about the two lectures. The event will be moderated by Edward Hahnenberg from John Carroll University.
Further information on the speakers and the Zoom link to the lecture series can be found on the event page.
