Is dependency on God an obstacle to human freedom? Is authentic human autonomy compromised by religious faith? Nietzsche and Dostoevsky epitomize the fundamental option that confronts anyone seeking truth and the meaning of life. Henri de Lubac’s The Drama of Atheist Humanism sets out their worldviews, the consequences of which continue to reverberate in our post-modern, post-truth culture. You are invited to engage with this classic text that casts light on contemporary nihilism at odds with the persistence of religious faith.
This winter quarter, become our traveling companion as we continue a pilgrimage of unforgettable cosmic and spiritual grandeur through Dante Alighieri’s Commedia. Having passed through the horrors of hell, our poet-protagonist turns to pondering questions of love, virtue, grace, and divine providence as he journeys along Mount Purgatory’s breathtaking vistas, through the otherworldly astral spheres, into the bosom of the eternal Church Triumphant with his trusted guides: Virgil, Beatrice, and the “last of the fathers,” Bernard of Clairvaux – who, in the mystical climax of this crowning achievement of European literature, brings Dante before the throne of the living God.
