"Looking Back, Casting Forward: John Rufus's Plerophories and the Creation of an Anti-Chalcedonian Church"
This event is part of the Humanities and Arts Discovery Theme project, which seeks to engage students and interdisciplinary groups of faculty in signature scholarship across the humanities and the arts. Ohio State is initiating a university-wide conversation focused on defining the humanities and the arts, exploring current topics and trends, and addressing today's most important concerns.
The From Homer to the Qur'an: The Ancient World at OSU theme expresses the chronological and geographical breadth and inter-departmental scope of this project, which will capitalize on the university's remarkable strength in ancient studies and build a program of worldwide recognition that benefits not only scholarship and teaching here at OSU but also broader public understanding of the ancient past and its continuing influence.
