Speaker Series: Winnifred Fallers Sullivan

Religious Studies, ABF & Indiana University Bloomington
Arc of Scholarship Talk: Directions, Inspirations, Obstacles, and Impasses
Hybrid: Virtual/In-Person (ABF Offices, 750 N Lake Shore Drive, 4th Floor Chicago, IL)

We all know each other’s projects and publications. The more intriguing story is surely the elusive big picture. In this series, we invite colleagues who have arrived at a certain career stage to take us through the “arc” of their scholarship: how they began; new opportunities, directions, obstacles, and impasses; how the pieces fit together (or don’t); why they asked certain questions and not others; what puzzles have hounded them; and so on. We are confident that such self-reflection will be illuminating for all of us.
