SUMMARY:Saint John Paul II and the Polish Catholic Experience
DESCRIPTION:Fr. Raymond Gawronski\, S.J. (Dominican School of Philosophy & Theology\, Berkeley) \ncosponsored by The Copernicus Foundation\, Calvert House\, and the Polish American Student Association \nOften referred to as “The Polish Pope\,” John Paul II is better described as a global pope. The Polish experience offers a unique perspective that bore fruit in the person of Pope John Paul II\, who held the world’s attention for decades and offered a way to be Catholic in the Church’s new situation of worldly powerlessness. Through the lens of the Polish experience in Europe and America  – the “Polish hermeneutic” – this talk will explore the contribution of the person and work of St. John Paul II to the Church and world. \n\n This lecture commemorates the April 27 canonization of Pope John Paul II.

SUMMARY:Master Class on "Thinking on One's Knees: Von Balthasar and Nasr on Theology and Sanctity"
DESCRIPTION:Fr. Raymond Gawronski\, S.J. (Dominican School of Philosophy and Theology\, Berkeley) \nREGISTER HERE \nOpen to all graduate and undergraduate students (including non-University of Chicago students). Copies of the readings will be provided. Registration is required as space is limited. Please contact Mark Franzen with any questions. \nHans Urs von Balthasar’s distinction between “sitting” and “kneeling” theologies has become paradigmatic. He also thought the split between thinking  (dogmatic) and praying (mystical/spiritual) theologies has been the worst tragedy to befall Christianity in its long history. In his Gifford Lectures of 1980-81\, Persian born scholar and “perennialist” Seyyed Hossein Nasr surveyed the sweep of Western intellectual history\, tracing the separation of sacred/initiatory knowledge from abstract conceptualization. While both identify a historic break\, von Balthasar’s account differs profoundly in being radically Christocentric\, centering on the Logos that is Jesus Christ. \nIn this three-hour seminar session\, participants will discuss von Balthasar’s programmatic essay “Theology and Sanctity” (Explorations in Theology I\, pp. 181-209) and then attempt a dialogue with Nasr’s “Knowledge and Its Desacralization” (Knowledge and the Sacred\, ch. 1)\, with an eye toward healing what many see has been a catastrophic rupture.

SUMMARY:Pope Francis and the New Evangelization
DESCRIPTION:Fr. Robert Barron\n(Rector\, Mundelein Seminary/University of Saint Mary of the Lake; founder\, Word on Fire) \nCosponsored by Word on Fire \nIn this lecture\, Fr. Robert Barron discussed how to put faith into action in today’s increasingly secular world. With Pope Francis as a model of how to present “the joy of the Gospel\,” Barron argued that Catholics have a duty to awaken the faith of the baptized and bring back those who have drifted. While the message has remained unchanged since the first century\, Catholics are called to share the beauty\, goodness\, and truth of the faith with new ardor\, new expressions\, and new methods that will reach the disenchanted and bring people closer to Christ and to his Church.

SUMMARY:David Dancing Before the Ark: The Liturgical Theology Implicit in 2 Samuel 6
DESCRIPTION:Fr. Robert Barron\n(Rector of Mundelein Seminary/University of Saint Mary of the Lake;\nfounder of Word on Fire) \nDavid danced before the Ark as an image of humanity dancing with the Lord\, recovering the effortless harmony of Eden. In this lecture\, Robert Barron will explore the role of King David as a new Adam and cite the solemn protection God extends to the Ark of the Covenant as an example of the importance of proper worship. Throughout the Scriptures\, God attempts to “Eden-ize” man — that is\, to return him to harmony with Himself\, his fellow men and women\, and nature — by teaching him “right praise\,” culminating in the Lamb’s Supper as foretold in the Book of Revelation.

SUMMARY:A Mother's Mother: Music for St. Anne
DESCRIPTION:“A Mother’s Mother: Music for St. Anne”\nFriday\, May 9: 7:30pm\nBond Chapel\, University of Chicago (northeast of Ellis Ave. and 59th St.)\nSaturday\, May 10: 8:00pm\nSt. Clement Church\, 642 West Deming Place \nA concert Featuring Schola Antiqua of Chicago \nTickets available online or at the door (cash or credit)\n$25 adults / $10 student or senior \nThe late Middle Ages was a high water mark of devotion to the Virgin Mary. The proliferation of liturgies\, literature\, iconography\, and music for Mary spilled over to works in honor of her apocryphal mother\, St. Anne. Schola Antiqua explores chant and polyphonic music for the legendary grandmother of Christ in this program of chant and rich polyphony\, including works by Pierre de la Rue and Jean Mouton. Schola Antiqua’s concert series coincides with the release of Artistic Director Michael Alan Anderson’s book St. Anne in Renaissance Music: Devotion and Politics\, published by Cambridge University Press in 2014.

SUMMARY:Symposium on The Sacredness of the Person
DESCRIPTION:Michael Geyer (University of Chicago)\, Moderator\nHans Joas (University of Chicago)\nJohn D. Kelly (University of Chicago)\nBen Laurence (University of Chicago)\nWilliam Schweiker (University of Chicago) \ncosponsored by the Human Rights Program at the University of Chicago \nREGISTER HERE \nThis symposium will discuss The Sacredness of the Person\, a recent book by Professor Hans Joas. \nWhat are the origins of the idea of human rights and universal human dignity? How can we most fully understand—and realize—these rights going into the future? In The Sacredness of the Person\, internationally renowned sociologist and social theorist Hans Joas tells a story that differs from conventional narratives by tracing the concept of human rights back to the Judeo-Christian tradition or\, alternately\, to the secular French Enlightenment. While drawing on sociologists such as Émile Durkheim\, Max Weber\, and Ernst Troeltsch\, Joas sets out a new path\, proposing an affirmative genealogy in which human rights are the result of a process of “sacralization” of every human being.

SUMMARY:Baudelaire and Maistre: the Weight of Original Sin
DESCRIPTION:By 1851\, the poet Charles Baudelaire had become obsessed — in contrast to his previous anarchist position — with the views of the reactionary and fiercely Catholic Joseph de Maistre. Maistre argued that Original Sin “explains everything\,” a perspective that Baudelaire was to adopt\, and which markedly changed his poetry. This lecture will consider Baudelaire’s preoccupation with sin in light of Kierkegaard’s treatment of anxiety and sin in The Concept of Anxiety.
