Purpose: The purpose of the sixth Nangeroni meeting is to explore the Gospel of John’s christology, traditionally considered to be “high christology,” as part of the diversity of Jewish messianism within the Second Temple Period. The focus of discussions will address John’s depiction of the messiah in relation to the following topics: “divinity” and a divine messiah, the Incarnation, wisdom traditions, Enoch traditions and the Son of Man, Davidic expectations, and Moses and Torah. The following questions will serve to guide our sessions: How and in what ways can the Gospel of John’s messiah be situated within Second Temple Period Judaism? Can John’s christology be seen as a part the diversity of Jewish messianism? If so, should it still be labeled a high christology? Can the Johannine messiah be considered “divine”? Were there other divine messiahs in Second Temple Judaism? What do we mean by “divine” and “divinity”? Is there a relationship between John’s λόγος and the Jewish sapiential tradition? What, if any, sort of relationship exists between Second Temple interpretations of the “one like a son of man,” particularly in the Parables of Enoch, and what we find in the Gospel of John? How do Nathanael and the Jerusalem crowd’s “King of Israel” and Pilate’s “King of the Jews” influence our perspectives on Davidic/kingship traditions in Second Temple Judaism, especially in light of Roman rule? How do the Moses traditions in the Gospel of John add to our understanding of prophetic messiah expectations of the time?
Registration
Participation in the sixth Nangeroni Meeting is by invitation only. If you are interested in joining the meeting, please contact the organizers.
The registration fee is based on the number of Enoch Seminars/Nangeroni Meetings you have attended in the past:
$125 – Newcomers; $110 – Attended 1 Seminar; $100 – Attended 2 Seminars; $90 – Attended 3 Seminars; $75 – Attended 4 or 5 Seminars + all emeriti; $0 – Attended 6 or more Enoch Seminars or Nangeroni Meetings
Accommodations
The rate for All-inclusive accommodations at Camaldoli is as follows:
300 Euros - All Participants; 200 Euros - Respondents; 0 Euros - Major Paper Presenters
Travel Information
You may fly into either Florence, Rome, or Bologna. Then take the train to Arezzo.
From Florence (Peretola), you will need to take a bus/cab to the main train station, Santa Maria Novella, then the train to Arezzo. From Rome (Fiumicino), you will take the train to Roma Termini, then to Arezzo. From Bologna (Guglielmo Marconi), you will take the bus/taxi to Bolgona Centrale and from there to Arezzo. Try to avoid local trains which stop at every station and therefore take much longer. Look for high-speed, intercity, or frecciarosa trains.
We will be scheduling a bus to take us from the train station in Arezzo to Camalodoli at 5:00pm. If you are unable to make this bus, you can take the train from Arezzo to Bibbiena. From Bibbiena, you can take a taxi to Camaldoli (~20-30 euros); however, on a Sunday night, you may have difficulty locating a taxi in Bibbiena. You may also take a taxi directly from Arezzo to Camaldoli, but this will be more expensive (about 80+ euros)."
