The main goal for this presentation was to showcase how the flood narrative, known best via the Hebrew Bible and Qur'an, was a typical account focused around the promises and duties shared between divine authorities and humanity.

For me, it was really eye-opening to develop what certain aspects of these flood accounts, from the 19th century BCE through to today, are picked up and left out in order to detail the importance of these promises for a number of different peoples.

Sounds very fun! I'm just finishing up an article on this very topic, from a slightly different angle.
