Mapping Preaching and Preachers in & from the Middle East: Circulation and Transnational Networks
Workshop de l’ANR PredicMO – Grammaires de la prédication : lexique, cartographie, mise en scène (Moyen-Orient, XIXe-XXIe siècles).
Contemporary research on preaching has long remained compartmentalized by religious traditions and regional contexts, neglecting transnational and connected dimensions. The extensive literature existing on missionary activities, particularly within Christian and Islamic contexts, which often focused on proselytism or sermons themselves, partially overlooking broader spatial and social dynamics (Simiz, 2012; Mahmood, 2005; Sharkey, 2009) is now being challenged by a growing body of research on migration and religion in a transnational perspective.
