SUMMARY:The Song of Songs in Monastic Interpretation
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public. This event was held online through Zoom and live-streamed to YouTube. This event is part of a summer webinar series on Monastic Wisdom.  \nThe Song of Songs is the Bible’s treasure-house of love poetry\, a cycle of songs sung between a man\, a woman\, and their friends\, lush with the imagery of nature and of intense human longing. In it the name of God nowhere to be seen; believers have always\, however\, cherished it as a figurative representation of the ideal love between God and humanity; indeed\, one of history’s most forceful movements for Christian celibacy – the Cistercian renewal of the twelfth-century – was famous for tending to treat the Song of Songs as the very heart of the Bible. This challenges us with the following very basic question: what does it mean to speak of God in romantic terms? \n\nWisdom from the Heart of the Cistercian Tradition \nJoin us once per month\, June through September\, for four Sunday evening sessions featuring monks from Our Lady of Dallas Cistercian Abbey who will lead us through a series of reflections examining the contours of the monastic intellectual tradition. At the foundations of the Cistercian order is the reform movement of St. Bernard of Clairvaux. In faithfulness to their founder\, these webinars invite participants to see how the monastic approach to Scripture\, theology\, and the common life might reform our own understanding and endeavors in the labors of daily Christianity. \nThis series is co-presented with Our Lady of Dallas Cistercian Abbey\, and co-sponsored by the Harvard Catholic Forum\, the Nova Forum\, the Saint Benedict Institute\, and Studies in Catholic Faith and Culture at the University of Dallas. \nUpcoming sessions: \nJuly 25\, 7:30 PM CT: \nA School for the Lord’s Service”: A Meditation on the Rule of St. Benedict\nFr. Abbot Peter Verhalen\, O. Cist. \n— \nAugust 22\, 7:30 PM CT: \nThe Monastics before the Scholastics: An Introduction to Medieval Monastic Theology\nFr. John Bayer\, O. Cist. \n— \nSeptember 26\, 7:30 PM CT: \nThe Christological Structure of Spiritual Growth In the Thought of St. Bernard\nFr. Roch Kereszty\, O. Cist.
