Academic Colloquia As part of its mission to foster scholarship, the Text & Canon Institute hosts academic colloquia that bring together top scholars in the field to present and publish their work on key aspects of the textual history, canonical formation, and translation of both the Old and New Testament. The end goal is a published volume with revised papers that advance our knowledge of the subject. Our first colloquia in November 2021 examined the philological work of Origen of Alexandria. Future colloquia are in the planning stages and will be announced in time. To keep up with the latest details, subscribe to our newsletter. Get new articles and updates in your inbox.
