Back to work, since my bad conscience has caught up with me after meeting @mbrandonmassey.bsky.social for lunch at #aarsbl25
The article rewrite I still owe you will eventually find its way to you. I promise 😅 - not a bad work setup in my American sister's basement though.

Thank you and good-bye, Boston/#aarsbl25!
Grateful for 4 days of scientific input, presenting, debating, laughing, and for aaaall the books!
Also: I get to take home the pre-print of my book. ❤️🔥
Next stop: Milwaukee, to celebrate Thanksgiving with my American Family ❤️

Black friday for scholars of religion. The moment the book exhibition opens on the last day of #aarsbl25 and some publishers just give away their books for free, so they don't have to ship them back home 😍

Last presentation of the session by Hunter Edwards and Grant Testut introduced us to the game "shadow of the colossus" and how it plays with the not only but also biblical motif of the danger of coming too close to the holy. #aarsbl25

Kelsey Spinnato shows us, how sometimes one's love for farming games can lead to a scientific paper about Genesis reception in video games. In this case we were talking about the game "Harvestella". #aarsbl25

Emily Rock asks "what's in a meme?" And shows us through a case study with a meme that theologizes on the book of Job. One of the results: (many) people do have their understanding of a theology of suffering. #aarsbl25
Emily Rock talking and standing next to her PowerPoint. Which shows a meme of a video game figure jumping down on another figure. The figure that's being jumped on has text in front of it saying "god will make your live peaceful and giving you everything you want". And the text bout the figure jumping says "the book of Job".

Solène Feller took us into the apocalyptic world of the game "Silent Hill" and how it uses biblical apocalyptical quotes quite frequently. #aarsbl25

Abigail Thompson starts us off with a very engaging presentation on how the Gen Z meme culture and the book of Ecclesiastes go together in their lamenting. Fantastic paper! #aarsbl25

Didn't expect to hear about Austrian Architect Alfred Loos here at #aarsbl25 in Boston. @juliansieber.bsky.social is giving a great critique of Loos' quite terrible article "Ornament and Crime" and his misinterpretation of Revelation's Heavenly Jerusalem.

Always impressive, how many women show up for a 7am @sblsite.bsky.social women networking breakfast. Definitely one of my favourite things about this conference. 2h ours too appreciate and uplift each other, whole also acknowledging challenges so many of us face in academia. #aarsbl25
View into a conference room with many round tables, filled with women sitting and chatting.

Early #ootd for day 3 of #aarsbl25. But women's breakfast at 7am is worth it!

Beautiful Boston ❤️

Listening to Bernadette Brooten present was, as always, a joy and very informative! She presented her research on why she suggests that Junia and Julia from Roman 16 might have been freed women, who were enslaved before. #aarsbl25

Yep. This was fun.
I love presenting. (Don't know if you can see it...)
I got so much positive and inspiring feedback on my paper. What a great day at #sblaar25

Already my highlight of #sblaar25: holding my first book in my hands for the very first time! What a milestone. ❤️
You can now pre-order "Maria – Mutter im Konflikt" with @mohrsiebeck.bsky.social
“Dr. Eva Puschautz, published author” doesn’t sound too bad, does it?

Next is a paper by @siobhanjolley.bsky.social on the Noli me tangere theme in paintings and how they don't really show a Johannine Magdalene, because the Gospel doesn't describe much of her there, but painters already work with a woman composed out of all Gospels and some unnamed women. #sblaar25

And so it begins. First paper I'm listening to is given by Magdalene Breidenthal, who is showing us stunning paintings out of a byzantine Church in Cyprus (painted 1105/1106), dealing with light symbolism, probably also inspired by "I am the light of the world" (John 8:12). #sblaar25

Still a great and a bit absurd feeling to see my name with the title of a paper I will give in print in the programme book of the annual meeting of #sblaar25
Come, join our Gospel of Mark session if you're around in Boston today in the afternoon!
❤️❤️
Photo of the Programme section of the Gospel of Mark session today in the afternoon. It will take place today, Saturday, Nov 22nd from 4-6.30pm at the new Hampshire room of the Marriott Copley place. The title of my paper is "self-empowered women on the Move. Female Agency in the Gospel of Mark"

So, apparently Jetlag is good for my physical health.
Good Morning, Boston.
Day one at #sblaar25 is starting!
