SUMMARY:Eudaimonia: Philosophical\, Theological\, and Psychological Perspectives
DESCRIPTION:What is a good human life? What are the virtues and community types that enable us to live well?  This seminar will explore the nature of virtue and happiness by putting philosophical and theological perspectives on eudaimonia in dialogue with the empirical findings and theoretical frameworks of contemporary psychology\, especially the field of positive psychology situated at Penn. Possible topics to be explored include: (1) eudaimonia and its relation to subjective well-being\, (2) virtue in the context of community and social institutions\, (3) the significance of religion and transcendence for human flourishing\, (4) interdisciplinary perspectives on concepts like (a) freedom and grace\, conditioning and constraint; (b) acquired virtue and infused virtues\, or (c) sin / failure and forgiveness / resilience. \nThis Magi Summer Seminar is presented by the Collegium Institute and the Lumen Christi Institute\, and will feature lectures by Martin E.P.
