SUMMARY:Pope Benedict's Jesus of Nazareth Non-Credit Course
DESCRIPTION:Tuesdays\, April 7-May 19\nGavin House\, 1220 East 58th Street\n6:00pm: Dinner\n6:30pm: Presentation \nPaul Mankowski\, S.J. (Lumen Christi Institute Scholar-in-Residence) \nREGISTER HERE \nOpen to current university students and recent graduates. Others interested in attending please contactinfo@lumenchristi.org. \n“This book is solely an expression of my personal search ‘for the face of the Lord’.”  Pope Benedict XVI’s Jesus of Nazareth is the product of a lifetime’s prayerful contemplation of scripture by an eminent theologian\, for whom the person of Jesus is the key to understanding both the sacred text and the human person:  “Jesus has brought God and with God the truth about our origin and destiny: faith\, hope\, and love.”  The course will provide background for recognizing the several tributaries of Christian theology and scholarship that Benedict brings together in this work\, and will examine in detail the chief moments in the life of Jesus on which he throws new light.  No prior familiarity with the work of Josef Ratzinger is presumed.

SUMMARY:On a Possible Epistemology of Revelation
DESCRIPTION:Jean-Luc Marion (University of Chicago) \ncosponsored by the Philosophy Department \nHow is it possible to admit a rational truth that at the same moment could not be achieved by mere rationality? This implies a revision of the definition of knowing\, and of the relation between will and understanding. Saint Augustine and Pascal – with some others – may give a clue.

SUMMARY:The Jewish Roots of Catholic Charity
DESCRIPTION:Gary A. Anderson (University of Notre Dame; author of Charity: The Place of the Poor in the Biblical Tradition) \nIt has long been acknowledged that Jews and Christians distinguished themselves through charity to the poor. Though ancient Greeks and Romans were also generous\, they funded theaters and baths rather than poorhouses and orphanages. How might we explain this difference? In this significant reappraisal of charity in the biblical tradition\, Gary Anderson argues that the poor constituted the privileged place where Jews and Christians met God. Though concerns for social justice were not unknown to early Jews and Christians\, the poor achieved the importance they did primarily because they were thought to be “living altars\,” a place to make a sacrifice\, a loan to God that he\, as the ultimate guarantor\, could be trusted to repay in turn. Contrary to the assertions of Reformation and modern critiques\, belief in a heavenly treasury was not just about self-interest. Sifting through biblical and post biblical texts\, Anderson shows how charity affirms the goodness of the created order; the world was created through charity and therefore rewards it. \nHosted by Jenner & Block. Cosponsored by The Lumen Christi Institute\, The Catholic Lawyers Guild\, The Decalogue Society of Lawyers\, The Jewish Judges Association of Illinois\, and The National Center for the Laity.

SUMMARY:Master Class on "Seeing and Being Seen: a Reading of Nicholas of Cusa's "The Vision of God""
DESCRIPTION:Jean-Luc Marion (University of Chicago) \nREGISTER HERE \nNicholas of Cusa\, in a famous essay on The Vision of God\, explained how and why experiencing God does not mean first seeing an image of the divine\, but to be under the gaze of Christ. This difference leads one to distinguish very clearly the icon from the idol. Participants will read The Vision of God in preparation for this discussion. \nCopies of the book Nicholas of Cusa: Selected Spiritual Writings (Paulist Press\, 1997) will be provided free of charge for participants. \nThis master class is open to all graduate and undergraduate students\, including non-University of Chicago students. Space is limited and offered on a first-come\, first-served basis. If you have any questions\, please contact Mark Franzen.
