One of the advantages of a huge, multidisciplinary, international conference like #aarsbl22 is the chance to encounter whole areas of scholarship I'd never happened to think about before. For example, this morning I went to an excellent panel by the Religion and Popular Culture unit on Buffy the Vampire Slayer at 25, which among other things introduced me to Slayage, a peer-reviewed journal of Buffy and related topics. https://www.whedonstudies.tv/slayage-the-international-journal-of-buffy.html

On the train to the airport and just brimming with love and gratitude for all the friends I got to hug and catch up with this weekend 😭😭😭 I know your job won’t love you back, but damn if the people I’ve met in the course of my job don’t. Anyway if I saw you or talked to you at all this weekend I probably told you I loved you 500 times but consider this 501. #aarsbl22

"Who Are You? Preliminary Results of the Academic Genealogies of Near Eastern Scholars (AGNES) Project"

Where do archaeologists and other scholars of the ancient Near East come from? Who were the intellectual fathers and mothers and who are their children and grandchildren, some of whom lead the field today?

The Academic Genealogies of Near Eastern Scholars (AGNES) project comes out of years of conversations about the history and development of the discipline of archaeology of the southern Levant. Our field has lost many senior scholars in recent years, including some who knew a tremendous amount of history about previous generations. We decided to act before we lose any more.

Some great papers and discussion about spiritual care in the panel on Buddhist-Christian Studies panel. Interesting to hear how Buddhist chaplains work to care across difference and navigate Christian hegemony, mainly in American healthcare settings. #aarsbl22 #chaplaincy #Buddhism #Christianity
