Southern Religion through its Dissenters, Outsiders, and Critics<\/a>\u00a0(September 13, 2016)<\/strong>Earlier in this volume, as part of our ongoing effort to expand the scope of topics and approaches in the journal,\u00a0JSR<\/i>\u00a0published a forum on “Southern Religion and the Atlantic World.” This forum, on “Dissenters, Outsiders, and Critics,” works toward a similar goal. Whereas the previous forum analyzed and expanded the “southern” in southern religion, this one takes a critical look at the “religion.” Edited by Charles McCrary, this forum contains four essays that examine southern religion through lenses provided by subjects who often are excluded from dominant depictions of southern religion.<\/p>\n\t

Do New Histories of Slavery Mean New Histories of Southern Evangelicalism?<\/a> (September 1, 2016)<\/strong>In January at the AHA\/ASCH meeting, a group of scholars examined how new scholarship\u00a0on the history of slavery might affect scholars who focus on religion. Convened by Bob Elder at the meeting, JSR<\/em> is honored to share the panel with a broader audience. Our hope is is that we can continue to share panel presentations in the Forums section as we continue to think critically about the role of religion in the American South.

Southern Religion and\u00a0the Atlantic World<\/a> (May 19, 2016)<\/strong>JSR<\/em> has spent the better part of the past two years thinking about how we can expand the journal’s scope to include topics not typically associated with our content.\u00a0Associate Editor, Emily Suzanne Clark, asked three scholars to contemplate what it means to think about southern religion in an Atlantic World context. Jon Sensbach agreed to respond to these three essays. We are hopeful that this forum starts a conversation about what we mean when we say southern and religion. We also hope to continue the conversation in a variety of ways in the future.<\/p>\n\t
