ERiC Summer School provides a fruitful and well-established format for introducing and discussing cutting-edge research relating to the problems of studying inter-religious relations on a global scale.
The summer school will examine such diverse topics as religion, gender, media, digital humanities and material culture. Aimed at doctoral and advanced mastersâ-level students, ERiC encourages students from around the world to consider religious studies from multiple political and cultural standpoints, giving them the opportunity to create an international network of like-minded junior scholars.
The approach of the ERiC Summer School is historically and culturally comparative: looking at religious interaction across time as well as geography. Christian-Muslim contacts in the past give hints at current issues; Buddhismâs role as a conduit through which many ideas shifted from India to Tibet and China looks at the ties that bind in Asian history; interreligious contacts in medieval and early medieval Ethiopia foreshadow contacts and conflicts in the contemporary Horn of Africa. All such regions and histories have been the subjects of past ERiC presentations and discussions.
The ERiC Summer School is a project of the Center for Religious Studies (CERES) at Ruhr-UniversitÀt Bochum, Germany.
To apply, please send a letter of interest, a research project proposal, contacts of two referees and a recent curriculum vitae to (preferably via email) by 1 May 2016:
