Workshops:
Put the workshops in order of preference, the one you would like to participate in most you put on top. If you give a small motivation supporting your choice, it will enhance your chances!

Workshop 1: Focused on St. Augustine of Hippo
Religion & Philosophy (Late Antiquity, Early Christianity)

Workshop 2: Focused on Al-Biruni
Religion & Science (Islam, Middle Ages)

Workshop 3: Focused on Erasmus
Religion & Satire (Humanism, Renaissance)

Workshop 4: Focused on Rvd. Richard Allen
Religion & Minorities (American (Black) Church Movements, 19th Century)

Workshop 5: Focused on Friedrich Nietzsche
Religion & Secularization (Atheism, 20th Century)

A small note concerning the workshops, as the theme is 'Comparative History of Religion', there is some guidance for your topics. Please consider the following example for workshop 4:

You can choose - for example - for the workshop which will focus on reverend Richard Allen. This way you could make a comparison based on the theme Religion & Minorities and present something about another religious minority; let's say the Rastafari movement. Or you could compare Richard Allen with a similar figure within the American Black Church Movement, e.g. Martin Luther King. And of course you can make a plea by comparing his position with ideas in Europe at the same time, such as Het Réveil.

Thank you for applying, and keep track of this blog for more information!

Regards,

ISHA Utrecht
