SUMMARY:Poetry Being the Body: Theology in Dante
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE\nOpen to current graduate students and faculty. Advanced undergraduates and others interested in participating should contact dstrobach@lumenchristi.org. This event is in-person only. All registrants will receive pdfs of the selected readings\, which should be read in advance of the class. An optional wine and cheese reception will follow.  \nThe poet plays a crucial role in the development of a language of the “mystical”  that paradoxically gives voice to the insufficiency of human speech in the face of the reality of the divine. The revelation of this insufficiency speaks effectively to theology’s positive\, affirming\, role. Poetry is a pre-theological anticipation of theology. \nProf. Turner will build this argument with the three parts of Dante’s Commedia. Alongside this great text\, Prof. Turner will reference a chapter from God\, Mystery\, and Mystification\, which sets out formally a theological epistemology to which Dante gives a poetic voice. \nReadings:\nSelections will be from Dante’s Commedia and Turner’s book\, Dante the Theologian. \nBoth the required and recommended readings will be distributed to participants via Dropbox. If you prefer\, you can pick up a printout of the readings at Gavin House (1220 E. 58th Street) Mon-Fri\, 10am-4pm once they are ready. Please email David Strobach at dstrobach@lumenchristi.org to let us know you are coming. \nSchedule:\n1:30-2:00 | Pre-event coffee and cookies \n2:00-3:20 | Session 1 \n3:20-3:40 | Break \n3:40-5:00 | Session 2 \n5:00-5:30 | Reception

SUMMARY:Thomas Aquinas on Virtue and Grace in the Moral Life
DESCRIPTION:Open to current graduate students and faculty. Advanced undergraduates and others interested in participating should contact dstrobach@lumenchristi.org. This event is in-person only. All registrants will receive copies of the selected readings\, which should be read in advance of the class. An optional wine and cheese reception will follow.  \nThis event is made possible through the support of ‘In Lumine: Supporting the Catholic Intellectual Tradition on Campuses Nationwide’ (Grant #62372) from the John Templeton Foundation. \nThomas Aquinas distinguishes between two kinds of moral virtue: acquired moral virtues\, which are cultivated though one’s power and via one’s own repeated good acts\, and infused moral virtues\, which are bestowed on man directly by God in the moment of baptism.  The distinction between these two types of virtue is the focus of this master class.  The goal will be to understand how Aquinas understands the difference between the two types of virtue: the sources from which each spring\, the ways in which the acts of each differ\, and whether and to what extent he believes the two different types of virtue interact. \nThe first 15 registrants will receive a copy of Knobel’s book\, Aquinas and the Infused Moral Virtues. \nReadings:\nDisputed Questions on the Virtues (Preferably the Atkins translation): \n◊ Disputed Question on the Virtues in General a.8-11; (48 pages) \nSumma Theologiae (Preferably Alfred Freddoso’s translation\, available online at https://www3.nd.edu/~afreddos/summa-translation/TOC.htm) \n◊ Prima Secundae q.61 a.5\, 62\, 63\, 68 (22 pages total) \nAquinas and the Infused Moral Virtues \n◊ Chapter 6 (30 pages) \nBoth the required and recommended readings will be distributed to participants via Dropbox. If you prefer\, you can pick up a printout of the readings at Gavin House (1220 E. 58th Street) Mon-Fri\, 10am-4pm once they are ready. Please email David Strobach at dstrobach@lumenchristi.org to let us know you are coming. \nDiscussion Questions:\n◊ Conceptually\, what seem to be the most important differences between the  infused and acquired virtues? Aquinas repeatedly speaks of virtues as  “proceeding from principles\,” and of the different “seeds” of infused and  acquired virtue\, respectively. What is meant by the language of “principle” and  “seed\,” and how are those notions important in Aquinas’s understanding of  infused and/or acquired virtue? What is meant by the claim that the two types  of virtue differ in “species”? What role does the difference in the “end” that  each virtue is ordered to play\, and how important is it? \n◊ a.10 ad.4 of the Disputed Question on the Virtues in General and q.61 a.5 of the Prima Secundae are two of the very few texts where Aquinas says anything at all  about the relationship between the infused and acquired virtues. What do  these texts imply\, and is what each text implies the same or different? \n◊ Given Aquinas’s insistence that only the infused virtues order us to supernatural beatitude\, can it ever make sense on his account to pursue only  acquired virtue? \nSchedule:\n11:30-12:00 | Optional pre-event lunch \n12:00-1:20 | Session 1 \n1:20-1:40 | Coffee break \n1:40-3:00 | Session 2 \n3:00-3:30 | Reception
