Introduction

The focus of this reading group is to read and discuss a range of anarchistic religious texts. The aim is to familiarize ourselves with the minority traditions of anarchism within religious traditions, their inspiration, sources, and their ongoing political and religious importance. Readings will include classic and modern texts, research papers in progress, and possibly new translations. All readers of good will are most welcome.

The Reading Group will meet alternate term-time Mondays at 4pm. The venue will usually be the Meeting Room of Wesley House, 24 Castle St, Cambridge CB3 0AJ (this room are on the top floor of the building and then take a left). Note that Wesley House has moved from its site on Jesus Lane. The group can also be joined by Zoom.

Please contact us if interested, and if anyone has difficulty accessing the materials, let us know.
