Meeting Description:

‘The Acquisition of Performance Practices in Faith Settings’ : An International Symposium

This is the first event of ‘Heavenly Acts: Aspects of Performance through an interdisciplinary lens’, an international AHRC-funded interdisciplinary network (comprising sociolinguists, ethnomusicologists, educationists, social psychologists, anthropologists, religious studies, translation studies, and drama/theatre academics) which seeks to understand performance and aspects of performance as central or as important to accounts of a wide range of religious devotional practices.

The network’s first event focuses on how performers acquire, or are socialised into the competencies, identities, subjectivities and repertoires needed for religious performance and will include presentations by network members and, in liaison with local partners, a performer workshop and showcase event. 

Confirmed speakers include:

Professor Michael Frishkopf, University of Alberta (ethnomusicology)
Dr Phyllis Chew, University of Nanyang, Singapore (sociolinguistics)
Professor Holly Hearon, Christian Theological Seminary, Indianapolis (Biblical Studies)
Dr Tom Hodgson, Kings College (ethnomusicology)
Dr Joshua Edelman, Birkbeck College (performance studies)
Dr Rusi Jaspal, De Montfort University (social psychology)
Dr Vally Lytra, Goldsmiths University (literacy/multilingualism)
Dr Carl Morris, University of Central Lancashire (religious studies)

Dr Rupert Till, University of Huddersfield (music)
Dr Andrey Rosowsky, University of Sheffield (language and education)
