The University of Pittsburgh Press is pleased to announce the launch of a new scholarly series: Contemporary Asian Catholics (CAC).
CAC will publish scholarly books that explore how the most populous continent, Asia, and the world’s largest religious organization, Catholicism, intersect and redefine each other. Through different case studies, the series aims at redefining ways of approaching and conceptualizing processes through which Asian Catholicism is produced, contested, and shared.
French Modern Language Notes
For the 400th anniversary of the birth of George Fox—credited with the establishment of The Religious Society of Friends also known as Quakers—the 2024 Joint Conference will be held in Lancaster, in the area at the epicentre of early Quakerism. The anniversary offers a valuable point for reflection by historians, archivists and others to consider the life and times of Fox as well as his legacies, and a coming together of new and exciting ideas around Friends and their history. This conference is ideal for anyone researching Quakerism or those interested in the findings of the research.
