Magis Lecture | Why Do We Need Saints and Miracles?
Magis Lectures
Carlos Eire
Please join the Lumen Christi Institute, the Bollandist Society, and St. Ignatius College Preparatory School as we welcome the acclaimed Yale scholar, Carlos Eire. Eire's 2023 book, They Flew: A History of the Impossible, explores how historians have grappled with evidence of miracles during the early modern period, a time marked by scientific advancement and rejection of the supernatural. In this lecture, Eire will take a closer look at the human person - what is it about these supernatural accounts that speaks to the human heart so powerfully?
