Culture and Religion of the Ancient Mediterranean Colloquium (CRAM)
The goal of the Culture and Religion in the Ancient Mediterranean Colloquium is to promote high-level, interdisciplinary dialogue among faculty and graduate students who deal with religion and culture in antiquity in the Mediterranean basin and west Asia, all rather loosely defined. CRAM meets monthly during the academic year. Each meeting lasts about an hour, and typically is centered on a pre-circulated paper. CRAM is currently administered by Religious Studies.
For the full schedule, visit CRAM's website or contact Michael Satlow (Michael_Satlow@brown.edu).
