SUMMARY:Undergraduate Seminar on Happiness and Freedom
DESCRIPTION:APPLY HERE \nTHE APPLICATION DEADLINE FOR AMERICAN STUDENTS HAS PASSED. IRISH STUDENTS ARE STILL WELCOME TO APPLY UNTIL APRIL 16. \nUndergraduate students from Ireland and the US are invited to apply for this two-week seminar on “Happiness & Freedom.” Explore themes of nationalism\, modernity\, community\, and stability while being immersed in Irish culture and history. \nPresented by the Lumen Christi Institute and the University of Notre Dame. \nYou can download the poster here. \nABOUT THE SEMINAR\nHuman beings want to be happy. And they often see freedom as a necessary component in their happiness. What\, though\, should human beings be free from in order to be happy? Should human beings instead be free for certain things? In this two-week seminar\, we will explore philosophical\, theological\, and historical answers to the question of human freedom and happiness. Because of our location in Ireland\, we will focus on how the Irish have answered these questions throughout their history. We will pay special attention to the role that Christianity has played in contributing to (or perhaps detracting from) one’s freedom and happiness. \nFORMAT AND SCHEDULE\nWeek one will be held at the O’Connell House\, the Notre Dame Global Gateway in Dublin\, and week two will be held at Kylemore Abbey\, a Benedictine community in Connemara\, County Galway. The seminar readings and discussions will be supplemented by field trips around significant historical places in Dublin and County Galway. \nStudents will be provided with lodging\, transportation\, and most meals during the course of the seminar. Students will be responsible for arranging their own transportation to and from the seminar. Travel grants may be available on a need basis. \nGUEST LECTURERS\nMaria Cahill\, Lecturer\, University College Cork\nSiobhán Garrigan\, Loyola Chair of Theology\, Trinity College Dublin\nCyril O’Regan\, Huisking Professor of Theology\, University of Notre Dame\nDeclan Kiberd\, Donald and Marilyn Keough Professor of Irish Studies\, University of Notre Dame \nREADINGS\nIris Murdoch\, The Sovereignty of the Good\nAlasdair MacIntyre\, After Virtue\nR.F.
