SUMMARY:Colloquium on "Givenness and Revelation"
DESCRIPTION:Part of the Lumen Christi Institute’s faculty colloquia in philosophy and theology\, which bring together scholars from the region to discuss important questions in Catholic thought. \nAbout Givenness and Revelation\nGivenness and Revelation represents both the unity and the deep continuity of Jean-Luc Marion’s thinking over many decades. This investigation into the origins and evolution of the concept of revelation arises from an initial reappraisal of the tension between natural theology and the revealed knowledge of God or sacra doctrina. Marion draws on the re-definition of the notions of possibility and impossibility\, the critique of the reification of the subject\, and the unpredictability of the event in its relationship to the gift in order to assess the respective capacities of dogmatic theology\, modern metaphysics\, contemporary phenomenology\, and the biblical texts\, especially the New Testament\, to conceive the paradoxical phenomenality of a revelation. \nThis work thus brings us to the very heart and soul of Marion’s theology\, concluding with a phenomenological approach to the Trinity that uncovers the logic of gift performed in the scriptural manifestation of Jesus Christ as Son of the Father. Givenness and Revelation enhances not only our understanding of religious experience\, but enlarges the horizon of possibility of phenomenology itself.

SUMMARY:Aquinas and the Life of the Mind
DESCRIPTION:Saint Thomas Aquinas regards mind\, or intellect\, as a form of life.  It is even the most perfect form\, he says\, because it carries the power of free choice. Yet we may wonder how free he thinks we really are.  For he insists that our mind’s life depends\, intimately\, on a cause outside itself.  But on his view\, freedom of choice would not even make sense without this cause; and our lives are fullest\, and freest\, when we focus more on it than on ourselves.  This is to follow the mind’s deepest urge\, which is toward that rather neglected virtue called wisdom. \n\nThis event is presented by the Virtue\, Happiness\, & the Meaning of Life Project\, made possible by a generous grant from the John Templeton Foundation\, and co-sponsored by the University of Chicago Divinity School\,  Martin Marty Center\, and the Lumen Christi Institute. \nIf you need assistance in order to fully participate in this event\, contact Valerie Wallace. \nPhoto of detail of the Piazza di Santa Maria Novella by Sarah Tarno.

SUMMARY:Gerard Manley Hopkins\, S.J.: The Priest & The Poet
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE\n6:00pm Buffet Dinner  |  6:30pm Lecture \nOpen to current students.  \nG M Hopkins (1844-1889) converted to the Catholic Church while a university student and later became a Jesuit priest and lecturer in classical Greek.  The poems by which he is known today were unpublished in his own lifetime\, but in some measure formed — and were formed by — his friendships and his distinctively sacramental view of his own priesthood. \nThis course will consist of seven classes in which\, after some brief biographical introduction\, two or three poems of Hopkins will be read\, together with pertinent material from his journal and letters\, and discussed with a view to understanding the relation between Hopkins’s temperament\, his faith\, and his art — and\, primarily\, with the aim of deepening enjoyment of the poems themselves.  No prior familiarity with Hopkins is presumed.  No class presumes attendance at any other and students are welcome to attend any or all. \nSCHEDULE \nApril 4th — Dawn \nApril 11th — Noon \nApril 18th — Night \nApril 25th — Summer \nMay 2nd — Autumn \nMay 9th — Winter \nMay 16th — Spring

SUMMARY:All Things Hold Together: A Great Books  Education and the Catholic Tradition
DESCRIPTION:The Great Books can lead us to God and a liberal arts education finds its fulfillment in the liturgy.  Yet\, the curriculum and culture of many universities today are\, by their very structure\, inimical to such ends.  Reflecting on his own education as a Fundamentals major at the University of Chicago and on the Catholic tradition he now teaches\, Professor Ortiz will consider the blessings and limits of a Great Books education and how the Catholic tradition might restore the promise of the liberal arts by providing a vision of the whole and cultivating a habit of praise and thanksgiving.

SUMMARY:Panel Discussion on "Natural Law in Court"
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE\n$25 Registration / Free for Current Students and Faculty / 1 CLE CREDIT for an additional fee of $10 \nThis program has been approved by the Illinois MCLE Board for 1 hour of General CLE credit. Cosponsored by the Catholic Lawyers Guild of Chicago and the Loyola University Chicago School of Law. \nJoin us for a reception and panel discussion of the recent book by R. H. Helmholz\, Natural Law in Court: A History of Legal Theory in Practice (Harvard University Press\, 2015). Copies of the book will be available for purchase. \nUntil very recently\, lawyers in the Western tradition studied natural law as a part of their training\, and the task of the judicial system was to put its tenets into concrete form\, building an edifice of positive law on natural law’s foundations. Although much has been written about natural law in theory\, surprisingly little has been said about how it has shaped legal practice. Natural Law in Court asks how lawyers and judges made and interpreted natural law arguments in England\, Europe\, and the United States\, from the beginning of the sixteenth century to the American Civil War. \nSCHEDULE:  \n5:15PM   Registration and Reception \n6:15PM   Program \n7:30PM   Close
