37th Annual Meeting
Montreal, Quebec, March 30-April 2, 2006

eighteenth century. What role did sex and gender play in this
conceptualization of the secular, in religious and non-religious texts and
identities? What are the sexualized components of a secular identity or
subjectivity? How do they impact the transformation of religious
identities in the period?
Please kindly forward this CFP as widely as you can.
