Conferences and seminars
The Centre holds scholarly conferences, and seminars aimed at PhD students.
Conferences
CSCO holds scholarly conferences, most recently an international conference on the important second-century figure, Justin Martyr.
A volume of essays arising from this conference appeared in 2007, Justin Martyr and His Worlds, edited by Sara Parvis and Paul Foster (Augsburg Fortress Press).
This was followed in 2009 by a special conference on Irenaeus of Lyons, from which a volume of essays is expected.
Seminars
From time to time, CSCO offers seminars and symposia especially aimed at PhD students.
Recent examples include:
- a session on Prof. Timothy Lim's volume, A Short Introduction to the Dead Sea Scrolls
- a one-day session featuring the work of the Muenster Institute for Text-Critical Research (with presentations from key figures in the Institute)
- a case-study session devoted to a papyrological analysis of the Greek fragments of the Gospel of Thomas
