Dr. Timothy Beal recently traveled to Aarhus University in Denmark to deliver the Keynote Lecture at the 21st biennial conference of the International Society for Religion, Literature and Culture.
The purpose of the ISRLC Conference 2024 is for scholars working specifically or broadly in religion, literature, and culture to reflect on and exemplify what scholarship within the Humanities, including Theology, has to offer in contributing to a renewed mission for the Humanities, and in concretising its value for our rapidly changing world.
Dr. Beal’s keynote, “What’s So Generative about Generative AI? Talking with Machines about Creativity, Process, and Attention,” thoroughly embodied this mission.
