Day in honor of Larry Hurtado

A DAY IN HONOR OF PROFESSOR LARRY HURTADO is being planned by Dr. Helen Bond, the new director of the Centre for the Study of Christian Origins at the University of Edinburgh:
We have a few ideas for the coming year, but I’d like to announce only one at the moment – a day in honour of Prof Larry W. Hurtado on 7th October 2011, 10am – 4 pm. We’ve invited a distinguished list of speakers – Profs Richard Bauckham, Tommy Wasserman and Thomas Kraus – all of whom will engage with Larry’s work in the areas of early high Christology, text criticism and early Christian manuscripts. Its likely to be a lively and engaging discussion, and we might even let Larry offer some kind of a response . . . As always, all are welcome. More details to follow.
An excellent idea! I hope I can make it to this.
