Zoom lecture on rethinking ancient "magic" (Aaron Butts)

THE PHILADELPHIA CENTER FOR CHRISTIAN ORIGINS has continued to meet during the pandemic. And one positive side effect of the lockdown is that the sessions are being broadcast on Zoom. Two remain for this academic year. You can see the full list here. The next one is on Thursday 25 March at 6:30 PM ET by Aaron Butts, Catholic Univeristy of America: Rethinking 'Magic' in Ancient Christianity and Judaism: A View from Ethiopian Prayer Scrolls.

For the Zoom link you need either to be on the mailing list or to request it from the organizers at pscoseminar@sas.upenn.edu. The Seminar also has a Facebook page.
