Extended Deadline: 22 April 2024
Hosted by the Massachusetts Historical Society
Over the past half-century, a broad array of scholars have explored Catholicism’s relationship to modernity, recasting along the way crucial parts of the story from the Reformation to Pope Francis. Today nearly half of the world’s 1.37 billion Catholics inhabit the Americas. Scholarly and demographic trends alike invite deepening our consideration of Catholic modernity not simply as a product of European culture, but rather as a global reality shaped and constituted by the Church’s former peripheries—not least South and North America.
The Conference on the History of Women Religious (CHWR) was founded in 1988 to assist historians in discovering the historical record of vowed Catholic women and to integrate their stories into larger narratives. Today scholars continue to research and write about these women’s lives, including their commitment to justice, human dignity, care for creation, health care, education, and contemplation. The conference committee invites proposals that consider areas of interest related to the broad theme of “lives and archives” of women religious.
