A Conference Sponsored by
The International Society for the Study of Religion, Nature and Culture
Celebrating its 10th Anniversary
14 – 17 January 2016
The University of Florida
Gainesville Florida
Mark your calendars and join us!
Since its founding in 2006 the ISSRNC has promoted critical enquiry into the complex relationships between human beings, the religious dimensions of their cultures, and the environments they inhabit. In 2007, it began to publish its affiliated, quarterly, peer-reviewed Journal for the Study of Religion, Nature and Culture.
As an interdisciplinary society, the ISSRNC is interested in all aspects of the relations between religion, nature and culture. Our conferences and journal are, therefore, replete with contributions grounded in a wide range of the arts, humanities, and sciences. Panels and paper proposals may address any aspect of the religion/nature/culture nexus, and focus on any time frame, space, or place.
Since the main conference theme is “Religion, Science and the Future”, we especially encourage proposals that, whatever else they illuminate, reflect as well on Religion, Science, and the Future. Conference subthemes include: Evolution, Religion and Science; Religion, Violence, and Neuroscience; Religion and Science on Health and Well Being; Religion, Science, and Indigenous Knowledge Systems; Consciousness, Mysticism, & Meditative Practice; The Greening of Religion; Religion and Nature in the Arts; and Ethology, Botany, and Sentience.
Further details can be found in the more detailed Call for Proposals & Papers.
There is still time to join what promises to be a very exciting conference in Gainesville, Florida from January 14-17, 2016.
