Via Paleojudaica I learn of a workshop, taking place in Oslo, which sounds rather interesting:
WORKSHOP AT THE UNIVERSITY OF OSLO:
This is the first major international workshop of the NEWCONT-project.Starting tomorrow. Pseudepigrapha and Hermetica figure in the program as well.
Background on Project NEWCONT is here.
But to my surprise, it says that attendance is “by invitation only”. I wonder why?
The project page is here. The whole project seems eminently sound.
Because Gnostic texts attract crazed maniacs and trolls?
And in Oslo, “trolls” could have a much more lethal meaning…. 🙂
Hmm, you’re probably right!
