Walker Percy Centennial:****Pilgrimage in Literature*

2016 SOUTHEAST CONFERENCE ON CHRISTIANITY AND LITERATURE

*April 7-9, 2016*
Montreat College, Montreat, NC 28757

Keynoters: *Farrell O’Gorman*, Belmont Abbey College

*Jim Wildeman*, Covenant College, emeritus

Like Binx Bolling in Walker Percy’s first novel /The Moviegoer, 
/literary characters often seek relationship with the God of the Bible.  
They feel detached from affairs in the material world.  Pilgrims sense a 
call from God to pursue him in spite of the unbelief surrounding them.
Essays will be considered from a variety of authors. Topics should 
pursue the intersection of faith and literature.  Creative writing 
presentations are welcome.

Undergraduate Research essays are invited; the Thursday evening session 
is devoted to them.


Please submit completed essays to Rich Gray (rgray at montreat.edu 
<mailto:rgray at montreat.edu>)
by January 10, 2016
