SUMMARY:Against Nostalgia: Catholicism\, History and Modernity
DESCRIPTION:Deeply ingrained assumptions about the nature of historical change prevent an adequate comprehension of the transformations that have created the contemporary Western world over the past half-millennium. Departures from traditional Christianity since the sixteenth century\, and related attempts to ground truth claims in scripture or reason alone yielded unintended pluralisms via Protestantism and modern philosophy that remain pervasively influential today. Catholicism continues to offer an intellectually viable alternative–provided one does not subscribe to inadequate views of how the past became the present. \nYou can subscribe to the Lumen Christi Institute Podcast via our Soundcloud page\, iTunes channel\, or by searching for our profile on any of the following platforms: Stitcher\, TuneIn\, ListenNotes\, Podbean\, Pocket Casts\, and Google Play Music.

SUMMARY:Vestiges of the Trinity: Joyce on the Artist as Imago Dei
DESCRIPTION:Thomas Aquinas’s doctrine of the Trinity is crucial to James Joyce’s presentation of the artist in both Portrait of the Artist and Ulysses. Now\, Joyce’s deployment of Trinitarian themes is not strictly orthodox of course. But the Trinity does provide a model\, an exemplar\, for a proper understanding of artistic fecundity and a subtle critique of popular romantic conceptions of artistic self-expression. Whatever his intentions\, Joyce’s treatment suggest ways in which the Thomistic doctrine of the Trinity and the Imago Dei can contribute to a fresh understanding of artistic activity.

SUMMARY:Imago Dei: Philosophical Approaches to the Human Being as Image of God
DESCRIPTION:This conference addresses the following questions: What constitutes the image of God? How are we to understand Augustine’s claim that human beings come to understand both who they are and who they have been only through relationship with God? How do St. Thomas Aquinas and Blaise Pascal remain within or depart from the Augustinian tradition? What role do Aristotelian and Platonic (or neo-Platonic) conceptions of human identity and the soul play? Lastly\, as Genesis offers an essentially relational account of “Imago Dei\,” in what way can we discover or participate in such relationship with God through social relationships?

SUMMARY:Does Secularization Lead to Moral Decline?
DESCRIPTION:The broad public debates on religion and ethics frequently suffer from empirical deficiencies. All sides tend to argue in a way one might call an “a priori” mode of argumentation. In contrast\, this lecture offers some empirically grounded reflections. First\, Hans Joas asks whether the morality of secularized societies could be a mere remnant or reverberation of religious traditions. Secondly\, he briefly investigates with regard to tribal societies whether religion should be considered to be constitutive for morality at all. Thirdly\, he uses an example from Christian missionary work to look at the interaction of new religion and traditional morality. And lastly he brings together these reflections by claiming that normative regulations have a double origin and he will mark the precise point where he sees a present danger of moral regression caused by secularization.

SUMMARY:A Colloquium on Kathleen Sprows Cummings’s New Women of the Old Faith: Gender and American Catholicism in the Progressive Era
DESCRIPTION:American Catholic women rarely surface as protagonists in histories of the United States. Offering a new perspective\, Kathleen Sprows Cummings places Catholic women at the forefront of two defining developments of the Progressive Era: the emergence of the “New Woman” and Catholics’ struggle to define their place in American culture. Cummings highlights four women: Chicago-based journalist Margaret Buchanan Sullivan; Sister Julia McGroarty\, SND\, founder of Trinity College in Washington\, D.C.\, one of the first Catholic women’s colleges; Philadelphia educator Sister Assisium McEvoy\, SSJ; and Katherine Eleanor Conway\, a Boston editor\, public figure\, and antisuffragist. Cummings uses each woman’s story to explore how debates over Catholic identity were intertwined with the renegotiation of American gender roles. By examining female power within Catholic religious communities and organizations\, she challenges the widespread assumption that women who were faithful members of a patriarchal church were incapable of pathbreaking work on behalf of women.
