SUMMARY:WEBINAR: Thomas Aquinas on Ways to Know God
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the third installment of our Spring Webinar Series. Professor Brian Carl\, who teaches philosophy at the University of St Thomas in Houston\, will present on the thought of Saint Thomas of Aquinas\, O.P. (d. 1274) on the ways to know God. Thomas was a friar of the Order of Preachers whose capacious mind bequeathed many treasures for the Christian tradition\, including scriptural commentaries\, philosophical treatises and commentary\, his Summa theologiae\, and devotional and liturgical texts. Thomas’ approach to the knowledge of God is complex\, acknowledging dialectical\, rational\, as well as revelatory\, gracious\, and mystical modes. \n\nThis lecture is part of our Spring Webinar Series on “Reason and Wisdom in Medieval Christian Thought” \nWhat can reason discover about God? Are there other possible ways to know God? Medieval Christians undertook great rational enterprises—including the sharp logic of Abelard and the grand system of Thomas Aquinas—as well as practiced experiential and contemplative modes of knowing\, as did Bernard of Clairvaux. This course will examine how different preeminent medieval Christian thinkers saw the relationship between reason and wisdom\, how to arrive at them\, and so how to seek the face of God. \nThis series is cosponsored by the Calvert House Catholic Center\, the Collegium Institute\, the Harvard Catholic Center\, the Nova Forum\, the Saint Benedict Institute\, and the St. Paul’s University Catholic Center. \nUpcoming Seminars: \nThursday\, April 30\, 7PM\nHildegard of Bingen (Title TBD) | Barbara Newman (Northwestern University) \nThursday\, May 7\, 7PM\nAbelard and Bernard of Clairvaux (Title TBD) | Willemien Otten (University of Chicago) \nThursday\, May 14\, 7PM\nJulian of Norwich (Title TBD) | Katie Bugyis (University of Notre Dame) \nThursday\, May 21\, 7PM\nBonaventure (Title TBD) | Kevin Hughes (Villanova University) \nThursday\, May 28\, 7PM\nMeister Eckhart | Bernard McGinn (University of Chicago) \nThursday\, June 4\, 7PM\nNicholas of Cusa | David Albertson (University of Southern California)
