SUMMARY:2021 Newman Forum Summer Institute
DESCRIPTION:In-person summer experience for high school students exploring truth\, goodness\, and beauty at Mundelein Seminary \nPresented by the Lumen Christi Institute’s Newman Forum. Open to current high school students and incoming college freshman only. This seminar is cosponsored by the University of Saint Mary of the Lake at Mundelein Seminary\, and the Archdiocese of Chicago Vocation Office.  \n\nDRIVING QUESTIONS\n“It is through wonder that men now begin and originally began to philosophize; wondering in the first place at obvious perplexities\, and then by gradual progression raising questions about the greater matters too…”   -Aristotle\, Metaphysics 982b \n“The Christian remains the guardian of that metaphysical wonderment which is the point of origin for philosophy and the continuation of which is the basis of its further existence. Wonderment is constantly on the point of turning into a marveling at the beauty of existence as a whole…”    \n-Hans Urs von Balthasar\, The Glory of the Lord: A Theological Aesthetics\, Volume V\, The Realm of Metaphysics in the Modern Age \nPhilosophy begins in wonder: How can I explain what I see\, put words to what I feel\, or communicate what seems inexpressible?  \nLooking out at the world\, one wonders: Is there some order to the universe and to my soul? Or is it all random?  \nWe wonder most of all about the true\, the beautiful\, and the good: Is there such a thing as Truth? Beauty? Goodness?  There must be\, but so many people disagree! How can one talk about the reality of concepts that seem so hotly contested? \nOVERVIEW\nIn this 4-Day Summer Institute\, high school students will be introduced to the disciplines and distinct methodologies of philosophy and theology through college-level lecture and discussion of the three “transcendentals” of truth\, goodness\, and beauty. Figures under consideration will include Plato\, Aristotle\, Augustine\, Bonaventure\, Aquinas\, Newman\, Ratzinger\, von Balthasar\, as well as relevant biblical texts. \nWe will balance academic formation with spiritual formation\, focusing on themes of discernment\, vocation\, and the practices that comprise an intellectually informed and responsible life of faith. In addition to a balance of the spiritual and intellectual\, we will also balance work and play. Mornings will be devoted to lectures and discussion\, with afternoons and evenings filled with excursions and fun programming (including a trip to Six Flags!) \n>> CLICK HERE TO APPLY << \nApplications are now closed.

SUMMARY:Irenaeus of Lyon’s Adversus Haereses: A Seminar on the Foundations of Early Christian Theology
DESCRIPTION:July 11—16\, 2021\, Fr. John Behr and Professor Lewis Ayres will lead a summer seminar of graduate students in a close reading of Irenaeus’ Adversus Haereses. One of the first systematic presentations of the Christian theology\, Irenaeus’ refutation of Gnosticism\, as well as his bold defense of the canon of Scripture and its connection with the preaching of the apostles\, set the trajectory for future theological reflection. Through the engagement of this principal text\, students will be able to grasp the contours of the early Church’s discernment of the Christian faith. \nThe seminar will be held in the monastic setting of St. Meinrad Archabbey in Indiana. Meals and lodging will be provided and students will receive a travel stipend. \nWorking knowledge of relevant ancient languages will be helpful\, but not essential. Preference will be given to Ph.D. students in theology\, though advanced M.A. students will be considered. \nThere will be two sessions each day in the morning and in the afternoon. Each session will include lectures and seminar-style discussions working through all five books of Adversus Haereses. Students will be expected to prepare the readings carefully and participate in the discussions of the material. \nApplicants will be required to submit: \n\nA completed online application form.\nAn updated CV.\nAt least one and no more than two letter(s) of recommendation.\nA statement of research interest no longer than 750 words\, which includes an explanation of how this seminar might bear on the student’s current or future research plans.\nOne academic writing sample (30 pages maximum).\n\nAll application materials can be submitted via the online application. Incomplete applications will not be considered. Fifteen students will be admitted to this seminar. Applications are now closed. \nPlease contact us with any questions. \nRequired Reading Before Seminar \nIrenaeus\, Against Heresies in Ante-Nicene Fathers 1\, eds. A. Roberts and J. Donaldson (Edinburgh\, 1887; reprinted Grand Rapids: Eerdmans\, 1987). [digital copy provided in advance] \nPreliminary Bibliography \nThis bibliography contains only a few suggestions of things worth reading before our sessions together. Moreover\, it lists only works in English. This will give a distorted view of scholarship on Irenaeus\, but it is a point of departure. For further literature see the extensive biography in John Behr’s Irenaeus of Lyons (Oxford\, 2013)\, which we suggest you read before we meet. \nIf you can read literature other than English it is important to be aware of the extensive notes attached to the multi-volume Sources Chrétiennes edition of Against Heresies\, and the huge corpus of the late Spanish scholar Antonio Orbe. Behr’s bibliography will provide indications to both these resources. If you have French\, an invaluable resource for the biographies of writers in this period is Pierre Nautin’s Lettres et Écrivains Chrétiens des IIe et IIIe Siècles. Not in Behr’s bibliography but a useful book (if you have German) is Brox\, Norbert\, Offenbarung\, Gnosis und gnostischer Mythos bei Irenäus von Lyon (Salzburg/Munich: Verlag Anton Pustet\, 1966). \nTranslations \n\nRoberts\, A.\, and J. Donaldson (eds.)\, ANF 1 (Edinburgh\, 1887; repr. Grand Rapids\, Mich.: Eerdmans\, 1987). [this is the version that we will send around as a word document.

SUMMARY:Nicholas of Cusa & Qur’anic Exegesis 
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public. This event was held online through Zoom and live-streamed to YouTube. This event is part of a webinar series\, “Catholics & Muslims: History\, Theology\, Encounters\,” presented by the Lumen Christi Institute and the American Cusanus Society. \nThis session will focus on “faithful interpretation” (pia interpretatio) as characteristic of Nicholas of Cusa’s approach to the Qur’ān as a book that claims to be revealed by God. He argues that it is possible to take the Qur’ān seriously as a theological source for Christian faith. Following Nicholas of Cusa’s example he will also talk about his own experiences as a Christian theologian reading the Qur’an as confirmation and critique of Jews and Christians as “People of Scripture” (ahl al-kitāb). \n\nCatholics & Muslims: History\, Theology\, Encounters  \nThe 1965 Vatican II document Nostra Aetate 3 encouraged Catholics and Muslims to “forget the past” and focus on a more positive future together\, one based on dialogue and cooperation. Since then\, Catholics at all levels\, from popes to parishioners\, have heeded this call. However\, the complicated\, centuries-long history of Christian-Muslim relations demands attention. Instead of “forgetting the past\,” Catholics need to revisit this history\, both on their own and with their Muslim partners. In this series\, we will examine Nicholas of Cusa’s approach to the Qur’an; the history of Mary as a bridge or barrier in Christian relations with Muslims; and St. Francis and Pope Francis as models of fraternal encounter. \nThis series is co-presented by the Lumen Christi Institute and the American Cusanus Society. This series is cosponsored by the Graymoor Ecumenical & Interreligious Institute\, the Australian Catholic University\, the Pontifical Institute for Arabic and Islamic Studies\, St. Paul’s Catholic Center\, the Nova Forum for Catholic Thought\, the Saint Benedict Institute\, the Hank Center for the Catholic Intellectual Heritage\, and both the Jay Phillips Center for Interreligious Studies and the Encountering Islam Initiative at the University of St. Thomas (Minnesota). \nUpcoming events: \nAugust 18\, 6:00 p.m. CDT \nMary & Muslims: Bridge or Barrier? \nDr. Rita George-Tvrtkovic (Benedictine University)\nRespondent: Dr. Zeki Saritoprak (John Carroll University) \n— \nSeptember 8\, 6:00 p.m. CDT \nFrancis & Francis: Encountering Muslims\, Past & Present\nDr. Jason Welle\, OFM (Pontifical Institute for Arabic & Islamic Studies\, Rome)

SUMMARY:Truth and Authority in Augustine's City of God
DESCRIPTION:This seminar is an intensive week-long course in how to read\, analyze\, and discern the many themes in Augustine’s most ambitious and sprawling work. The City of God tells the history of two societies\, and their respective origins\, progress\, and appointed ends. The story is engaged first from the evidence of profane history (I-XI) and then from the evidence of revelation (XII-XXII). In this seminar\, participants will discuss how Augustine reckons with the crisis of the ancient and the human city\, and whether it is possible to reconcile truth and authority across the competing domains of polity\, religion\, and philosophical wisdom. These themes will be approached from an interdisciplinary perspective\, addressing questions pertinent to students in political science\, philosophy\, law\, theology\, religious studies\, and history. \nFormat: There will be two 2.5-hour sessions each day. Each session will include an opening lecture and seminar-style discussion of the text and the issues at hand. Students will be expected to prepare the readings carefully and participate in the discussions of the material. \nLocation:  The seminar will take place at the University of Saint Mary of the Lake in Mundelein\, IL. Students will be provided with lodging\, meals\, and a travel stipend. \n\nApplication Information: This seminar will be open to JD\, PhD students\, postdoctoral fellows\, and junior faculty in the humanities and relevant fields (such as philosophy\, theology\, English\, classics\, law and  history). \n\nApplicants will be required to submit: \n\nA completed online application form.\nAn updated CV.\nAt least one and as many as two letter(s) of recommendation from a member of the program in which the student is currently enrolled.\nA statement of research interest no longer than 750 words\, which includes an explanation of how this seminar might bear on the student’s current or future research plans.\nOne academic writing sample (30 pages maximum).

SUMMARY:A School for the Lord’s Service: A Meditation on the Rule of St. Benedict
DESCRIPTION:Free and open to the public. This event was held online through Zoom and live-streamed to YouTube. This event is part of a summer webinar series on Monastic Wisdom.  \nWritten for monks living in Italy almost 1600 years ago\, The Rule of St. Benedict is remarkable for its wisdom\, its discretion\, and its clarity. St. Benedict draws on Scripture and the theological tradition that preceded him to craft a text that combines both detailed prescriptions for daily life in a monastery and the principles of a spiritual theology. All these prescriptions and theological principles he sees as foundation of a School for the Lord’s Service. In this webinar we will look at several elements of that “school” that guide any Christian to “run along the path of God’s commandments\, our hearts overflowing wit the inexpressible delight of love” (Rule of St. Benedict\, Prologue 49). \n\nWisdom from the Heart of the Cistercian Tradition \nJoin us once per month\, June through September\, for four Sunday evening sessions featuring monks from Our Lady of Dallas Cistercian Abbey who will lead us through a series of reflections examining the contours of the monastic intellectual tradition. At the foundations of the Cistercian order is the reform movement of St. Bernard of Clairvaux. In faithfulness to their founder\, these webinars invite participants to see how the monastic approach to Scripture\, theology\, and the common life might reform our own understanding and endeavors in the labors of daily Christianity. \nThis series is co-presented with Our Lady of Dallas Cistercian Abbey\, and co-sponsored by the Harvard Catholic Forum\, the Nova Forum\, the Saint Benedict Institute\, and Studies in Catholic Faith and Culture at the University of Dallas. \nUpcoming sessions: \nAugust 22\, 7:30 PM CT: \nThe Monastics before the Scholastics: An Introduction to Medieval Monastic Theology\nFr. John Bayer\, O. Cist. \n— \nSeptember 26\, 7:30 PM CT: \nThe Christological Structure of Spiritual Growth In the Thought of St. Bernard\nFr. Roch Kereszty\, O. Cist.
