SUMMARY:Mystik und Lebenskunst: Meister Eckhart und Marguerite Porète
DESCRIPTION:Meisterklasse mit Prof. Dr. Freimut Löser\, Prof. Dr. Dietmar Mieth und Prof. Dr. Markus Vinzent \nMeister Eckhart (ca. 1260 – 1328)\, der große\, als Mystiker verehrte Dominikanertheologe\, und Marguerite Porète (1250/60 – 1310)\, die weitgehend unbekannte Begine aus Frankreich\, waren nicht nur unmittelbare Zeitgenossen\, sondern auch Verwandte im Geiste. Der berühmte Magister an der Pariser Universität und die bislang nahezu vergessene Frau verstanden beide die Herausforderung des inneren Wandlungsprozesses als Lebenslehre. Beide bedienten sich zur Vermittlung ihrer Erfahrungen und Erkenntnisse der Volkssprache: Eckhart des Mittelhochdeutschen\, Porète des Mittelfranzösischen. Beide waren überzeugt: In der Tiefe des eigenen Selbst begegnet der Mensch Gottes Kraft. In der Einigung mit dieser Kraft wird Gott in allem geboren\, was der Mensch denkt und schafft. \nAls theologischer Lehr- und Lebensmeister ist der Dominikaner Eckhart auch heute ein gefragter Gesprächspartner und entfaltet Wirkung weit über das Christentum hinaus. Marguerite Porète\, die für ihre göttliche Liebeslehre auf dem Scheiterhaufen starb\, wurde Jahrhunderte lang als Person unsichtbar gemacht. Die Meisterklasse 2024 widmet sich den „Mystiken“ des Predigerbruders und der Begine. Sie richtet sich an Fachleute sowie an Interessierte\, die Meister Eckhart und Marguerite Porète näher kennen lernen möchten und sich für Fragen einer spirituellen Lebenskunst interessieren. \nMore Details

Les premiers contours de cette idée\nétaient de ne pas laisser inexploités les thèmes délimités par Fr. Akin Odiko\, OP\, mon\nprédécesseur – thèmes destinés à donner lieu à la publication d’un livre par l’IAOP.\nNous avons également souhaité que\, à l’issue du colloque\, les présentations soient sélectionnées\npour publication\, afin de redonner vie à l’idée initiale de publication de livre associée aux thèmes\nproposés par Fr. Akin\, comme je l’ai déjà mentionné.\nOrganiser un colloque peut être une tâche complexe. C’est pourquoi nous sommes conviés à\nexaminer ensemble dès maintenant comment créer un événement réussi.\nLes points ci-dessous me semblent indispensables (et peuvent être complétés lors de nos\néchanges) pour définir ce qu’il faut faire et comment le faire. Ces grandes lignes nous\npermettront de progresser systématiquement dans l’organisation de ce colloque\, prévu pour\ncoïncider avec le prochain sommet de l’IAOP en 2026 (le lieu spécifique sera déterminé lors du\nmini-sommet de l’IAOP en mars 2025). Je vous invite à les lire attentivement et à les enrichir si\nnécessaire\, en vue d’une réunion riche en idées constructives qui nous permettront de franchir\nune nouvelle étape de ce projet. \nA. Élaboration d’un programme préliminaire\n1. Définir l’objectif et la portée du colloque : Nous avons à déterminer le sujet principal du\ncolloque\, les thèmes à explorer\, et les objectifs que nous souhaitons atteindre.\n2. Constituer un comité organisateur : Nous avons à rassembler une équipe compétente\npour planifier et coordonner l’événement. Et nous devons nous assurer que chaque\nmembre du comité a des responsabilités claires et une communication efficace.\n3. Choisir une date et un lieu : Ceci revient au Mini-Sommet de mars 2025 comme tâche.\nCependant\, nous pouvons faire des propositions que le Mini-Sommet pourra examiner.\nNous devons veiller à sélectionner des dates qui conviennent aux participants cibles et\ntrouver un lieu approprié qui offre les installations nécessaires pour le nombre attendu\nde participants. [Une question à examiner dans ce sens est la suivante : Combien de\nparticipants envisageons-nous pour le Colloque ?]\n4. Élaborer un budget : Nous avons à faire une estimation des coûts associés à la location\nde l’espace\, la nourriture et les rafraîchissements\, les frais de déplacement des\nconférenciers\, la promotion de l’événement\, et la publication ultérieure des Actes du\nColloque. Nous aurons à nous assurer auprès du socius pour l’Afrique et le syndic de\nl’IAOP d’avoir un financement adéquat pour couvrir ces dépenses. \n5. Sélectionner les intervenants : Nous aurons à identifier les conférenciers à inviter et les\nintervenants potentiels. Ceci doit être fait le plus rapidement possible afin qu’un contact\nsoit fait à temps pour vérifier leur disponibilité et leur intérêt à participer. (Ma suggestion\nest que nous privilégions les frères capables de nos différentes entités en tenant compte\naussi des langues -Anglais et Français\, de préférence).\nB. Assurer le suivi\n6. Constitution de comités : pour le suivi de l’organisation préliminaire (contacts à prendre\,\ncollecte des informations des participants\, etc.) ; pour le déroulement de l’événement\n(les détails logistiques tels que la restauration\, l’hébergement des conférenciers\, la\ntechnologie audiovisuelle\, les supports visuels\, les impressions de documents\, etc.) et\npour l’après colloque (recueillir les commentaires des participants\, évaluation de\nl’événement\, et remerciements des intervenants pour leur contribution). \nFr. Georges Alahou\, OP.\nConseiller pour la Vie Intellectuelle (IAOP) \n  \nGROUNDWORK FOR THE ORGANIZATION OF THE 2026 COLLOQUIUM\nINTRODUCTION \nDear Friars\,\nAllow me to remind you that during our last meeting of the Regents and Coordinators of Studies\,\nthe idea of organizing a colloquium was conceived. The initial outlines of this idea were to not\nleave unexplored the themes delineated by Fr. Akin Odiko\, OP\, my predecessor – themes intended\nto result in the publication of a book by the IAOP.\nWe also wished that\, at the end of the colloquium\, the presentations would be selected for\npublication\, in order to breathe new life into the original idea of a book publication associated with\nthe themes proposed by Fr. Akin\, as I have already mentioned.\nOrganizing a colloquium can be a complex task. That is why we are invited to examine together\nfrom now on how to create a successful event.\nThe points below seem indispensable to me (and can be supplemented during our discussions) to\ndefine what needs to be done and how to do it. These guidelines will allow us to systematically\nprogress in organizing this colloquium\, which is scheduled to coincide with the next IAOP summit\nin 2026 (the specific location to be determined during the IAOP mini-summit in March 2025). I\ninvite you to read them attentively and to enrich them if necessary\, with a view to a meeting rich\nin constructive ideas that will allow us to take the next step in this project. \nA. Development of a preliminary program\n1. Define the objective and scope of the colloquium: We need to determine the main subject\nof the colloquium\, the themes to explore\, and the objectives we wish to achieve. \n2. Form an organizing committee: We need to assemble a competent team to plan and\ncoordinate the event. We must ensure that each committee member has clear\nresponsibilities and effective communication.\n3. Choose a date and location: This is a task for the Mini-Summit of March 2025. However\,\nwe can make proposals for the Mini-Summit to consider. We need to select dates that are\nconvenient for the target participants and find an appropriate venue that offers the\nnecessary facilities for the expected number of participants. [A question to consider in this\nregard is: How many participants do we envision for the Colloquium?]\n4. Develop a budget: We need to estimate the costs associated with renting the space\, food\nand refreshments\, speaker travel expenses\, event promotion\, and the subsequent\npublication of the Colloquium Proceedings. We must ensure with the socius for Africa and\nthe IAOP syndic that adequate funding is available to cover these expenses. \n5. Select the speakers: We need to identify the speakers to invite and potential contributors.\nThis must be done as soon as possible so that contact can be made in time to check their\navailability and interest in participating. (My suggestion is to prioritize capable brothers\nfrom our various entities\, taking into account both English and French languages\,\npreferably). \nB. Ensure follow-up\n6. Establish committees: For the follow-up of preliminary organization (contacts to be made\,\ncollection of participant information\, etc.); for the event execution (logistical details such as\ncatering\, accommodation for speakers\, audiovisual technology\, visual aids\, document printing\,\netc.); and for post-colloquium (gathering participant feedback\, event evaluation\, and thanking the\nspeakers for their contributions). \nBro Georges Alahou\, OP\nIAOP – Councillor for Intellectual Life \n\n  \nView Synonyms and Definitions

SUMMARY:Understanding the Old Testament as Christian Scripture
DESCRIPTION:Understanding the Old Testament as Christian Scripture\nAn International Symposium with a call for papers\n17-20 June 2024\nPontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas (Angelicum)\nThe field of modern biblical studies has given rise to a great deal of insight and a plethora of information about distinct\, ancient writings that we traditionally call the Old Testament. Today\, expert specialisation in regard to distinct books of the Bible and their composition is prevalent. However\, it is also the case that ancient\, medieval\, and modern Christian theologians have understood the Old Testament to be a united source\, consisting of different authors\, styles and genres\, and composed in different languages\, yet all speaking in one symphonic way as the living Word of God. \nHow today\, in a post-historical critical context can a Christian theology\, informed by modern Biblical studies\, recover a sense of the Old Testament in the Church and for the Church as the living Word of God fulfilled in Christ? How can it do so while acknowledging not only the human authorship of the Bible but also the way Christians engage in the Bible in conversation with the Jewish people\, the secular world\, and other non-Christian religious traditions? What does it mean to think about Israel\, canon\, and Christ? \nThis conference brings together a wide array of experts in biblical\, patristic\, and contemporary theology to reflect on Scripture as the root and source of Christian theology in an ecumenical context. \nThis conference is part of the Project for the Theological Reception of Scripture. \nMain Session Speakers and Tentative Topics\nDale C. Allison (Princeton Theological Seminary): Jesus and the Jewish Bible \nGary A.

The Old Testament\, the Jews\, and the Church \nThomas Joseph White\, OP (Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas): The Divine Senses of Humanity: Living Prophetic Inspiration and Apostolic Testimony in the Church \nConference Registration\nThere is no cost to attend. We do\, however\, ask that you please register in advance by clicking here. \nCall for Papers\nFor afternoon breakout sessions\, we are seeking papers. Paper presentations will be 30 minutes long followed by a brief question and answer period. \nSome suggested session topics include: \n\nOld Testament Eschatology\nChristian Old Testament and Relations with Living Judaism\nOn the Theological Significance of the Septuagint\nChristian Theological Hermeneutics and the Old Testament\nDifficult Passages in the Old Testament\nProblems of a Historical Canon in Ecumenical Perspective: Catholic and Protestant Conceptions of Canon\nNew Testament Apocalyptic and the Use of the Old Testament\nThe Old Testament Interpreted in New Testament Christology\n\nOther topics will also be considered. \nAbstracts of 500 words or less must be submitted by 30 September 2023 through this form.

SUMMARY:CONFERENCE and NEW BOOK PUBLICATION
DESCRIPTION:Sevgili Arkadaşlar\,\nDear friends \n  \n1. Konferans / Conference \nTerrae Incognitae \n  \n2. Yeni kitap/ New book \nLa misura mediterranea dell’umano \n1 – Konferans \n  \nCuma 22 Mart\, saat 20.00 \nSen Piyer Kilisesi’nde \n  \nAntonio Musarra ve Nicole Kançal-Ferrari \, konuyla ilgili bir konferansta \n  \nTerrae Incognitae \nOrtaçağ Kırım’ında Dil ve Kültür \n  \nCodex Cumanicus’u “Batılı” bir bakış açısıyla inceleyecek ve Ortaçağ Kırım’ındaki mimari çeşitliliği açıklayacak. Bu konferans aracılığıyla\, Ortaçağ Kırım’ında Batı ve Türk kültürlerinin karşılaşmasından kaynaklanan etkileri ve tepkileri görmeye çalışacağız. \n  \nİngilizce ve Türkçe çevirisi sağlanacaktır. \n  \nDaha çok biligi almak için burayı tıklayın. \n1 – Conference \n  \nTuesday\, the 22. of March\, at 8 PM in the Church of Sen Piyer \nAntonio Musarra and Nicole Kançal-Ferrari \, in a conference on the topic \n  \nTerrae Incognitae\nLanguage and Culture in Medieval Crimea \n  \nwill examine the Codex Cumanicus from a “Western” point of view and explain the architectural diversity in medieval Crimea.\nThrough this conference\, we will seek to see the influences and reactions that resulted from the encounter between Western and Turkish cultures in medieval Crimea. \nThe conference will be held in English and Turkish with live translation. \n  \nFor further details click here. \n2 – Yeni kitap \n  \nClaudio Monge ve Giuseppina De Simone ‘nin yeni kitabı “La misura mediterranea dell’umano” nun yayınlandığını duyurmaktan mutluluk duyuyoruz. \nClaudio Monge ve Giuseppina De Simone\, bu kültürler kavşağını her zaman zenginleştirmiş olan çeşitliliğin korunması gerektiğini yeni bir teolojik öneriyle teyit etmektedir. Birlikte\, Akdeniz’in “hafızasını” sadece zengin geçmişiyle ilişkili olarak değil\, aynı zamanda pratiğe\, kişisel ve sosyal gerçekliğin dönüşümüne yönlendirmeyi seçerek rehabilite ediyorlar. Bu şekilde teolojinin eleştirel işlevini vurgulayarak\, onu ilahi olanın epifanisiyle sürekli diyalog halindeyken insanın hizmetine sunarlar. Böylece\, “sınır “dan gelen eski Mare nostrum’u\, geçilmesi bizi öteki yapan “eşik” haline gelir. \n2 – New book \n  \nWe are delighted to announce the publication of “La misura mediterranea dell’umano”\, a new book by Claudio Monge and Giuseppina De Simone. \nClaudio Monge and Giuseppina De Simone affirm the need to protect the diversity\, which has always enriched this crossroads of cultures\, through a new theological proposal. Together\, they rehabilitate the “memory” of the Mediterranean not only in relation to its rich past\, but choosing to orientate it to practice\, to the transformation of personal and social reality. Accentuating in this way the critical function of theology\, they place it at the service of the human\, while in constant dialogue with the epiphany of the divine. Thus\, the ancient Mare nostrum from “border” again becomes “threshold\,” the crossing of which makes us other. \nFor further details click here. \n

SUMMARY:Miracles: Scientific\, Philosophical\, and Theological Perspectives
DESCRIPTION:The Angelicum Thomistic Institute Project for Science and Religion Presents:\nMiracles: Scientific\, Philosophical\, and Theological Perspectives\n1-2 March 2024\nAngelicum – Aula Minor \n  \nAims of the Conference:\nMiracles are one of the core features of the Christian religion\, as well as many other faiths. The most foundational miracles are those described throughout the biblical narrative. However\, there have been continued reports of miraculous events even to this day\, and some have become important in popular piety and the faith of individual believers. In light of the advances of modern science and our deeper understanding of the physical and biological world\, many have claimed that such miraculous events\, ancient or contemporary\, are implausible if not strictly impossible. In this conference we will consider the miraculous with the tools of contemporary theology\, philosophy\, and science. Drawing on the insights of an international collection of specialists\, we will address various foundational questions about God’s supernatural action in the world: What exactly is a miracle? In light of advances in science and philosophy\, are miracles possible? If so\, can modern science help identify and understand miraculous events? What role should miracles play in our personal Christian faith? Is it reasonable for scientists to believe in particular miracles\, and if so\, when? Does nature need special divine action in its operation and major evolutionary transitions? \nMore Details \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Discover the traditions and meaning of Ash Wednesday for Christians today!
DESCRIPTION:Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of the Lenten season\, reminding us of human mortality and the need for reconciliation with God. Many Christians attend special church services where they receive ashes on their foreheads. The ashes are a visible sign of repentance and a reminder of our return to dust in death. We are called to humility and faith in God for eternal life. \nAsh Wednesday is always 46 days before Easter Sunday (40 days excluding Sundays). The observance of Ash Wednesday is rooted in various biblical traditions. In the Old Testament\, ashes were a symbol of penance and mourning\, and in the New Testament\, Jesus fasted for 40 days in the wilderness before beginning his public ministry. \nLent is a time set aside each year for similar fasting\, observing an intentional season of focus on Christ’s life\, ministry\, sacrifice\, and resurrection. The Lenten season culminates with Holy Week\, which includes Palm Sunday\, Good Friday\, and the joyous celebration of Easter. \nPRAYERFUL GREETINGS to all on this coming Season of Lent\, \nIntellectual Life Office \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:CALL FOR PAPERS: New Perspectives on the Dominican Engagement for a Catholic Dialogue with Jews and Muslims
DESCRIPTION:60 Years of Nostra Aetate\nNew Perspectives on the Dominican Engagement for a Catholic Dialogue with Jews and Muslims\nJanuary 19‒21\, 2024\, in Trier (Germany)\nFrom January 19ᵗʰ to 20ᵗʰ\, 2024\, an international conference will be held in Trier\, Germany\, on the reception of Nostra Aetate\, entitled “60 years after Nostra Aetate. New Perspectives on the Dominican Engagement for a Catholic Dialogue with Jews and Muslims”. \nAs “one of the final surprises of the Second Vatican Council”1 (Maurice Borrmans)\, its comparatively short declaration of Nostra Aetate “on the relation of the Church to non-Christian religions” (1965) marks a paradigm shift in the attitude of the Catholic Church towards other religions. Despite numerous theological —from today’s perspective— shortcomings of the Declaration\, it represents a different\, appreciative perception of other religions\, especially Judaism and Islam\, and thus laid the basis for a modern theology of religions from a Catholic perspective. \nIt is indisputable that various religious\, among them Dominicans\, played a significant role in drafting the Declaration.2 Less known is their intensive\, sometimes decades-long theological and/or practical work of preparation\, which they carried out through personal encounters with Jews and Muslims as well as through their academic study of Judaism and Islam\, paving the way for Nostra Aetate. In contrast\, other members of the Order were critical of this engagement and attempted to prevent such a far-reaching declaration of the Council\, but ultimately failed because of the Council Fathers’ call for an ‘aggiornamento’ in the Church. \nPlease continue to read on the IDEO website. \nPlease email an abstract of your paper\, up to 300 words\, and a short academic CV to halft@uni-trier.de by September 30\, 2023 (subject heading: Trier Conference 2024). \nConference date: Friday\, January 19ᵗʰ\, through Sunday\, January 21ˢᵗ\, 2024. \nConference venue: Haus der pastoralen Berufe (Conference hall II)\, Jesuitenstraße 13\, 54290 Trier\, Germany. \nConference languages: English\, French\, German (no interpretation provided). \nOrganizers: Elias H. Füllenbach OP (IGDom) / Dr. Dennis Halft OP (Faculty of Theology in Trier\, Emil Frank Institute).

SUMMARY:Subject: Inquiry Regarding Potential Meeting Scheduling and Project Progress
DESCRIPTION:Dear Regents and Coordinators of Studies\, \nI trust this message finds you well. I am reaching out to seek clarification on specific matters\npertaining to our ongoing project regarding the publication of the inaugural issue of the Journal\nunder the IAOP label.\nDue to the postponement of our previously scheduled meeting in November\, caused by the\npending official appointment of new regents to replace those who have completed their terms\, I\nam currently without any updates on this matter. Given the urgency of our timeline\, it is\nimperative that we evaluate the progress made within our respective entities concerning the\nresponsibilities entrusted to us as regents for the publication of scholarly works in the Review\nunder the IAOP label. The inaugural issue is scheduled to coincide with the feast of Saint Thomas\nAquinas on January 28\, 2024.\nTo expedite the advancement of our project\, I am reaching out to both Regents and Provincials or\nVicars of entities where Regents or coordinators are set to be appointed. It is crucial that we\naddress the following question within our entities: Does the regent oversee the processes of\ncollecting works from PhD holders in your entity? This inquiry applies\, as necessary\, to both\noutgoing and incoming regents\, as we consider administration to be a continuous process.\nI kindly request the Provincials and Vicars to follow up on this matter within their entities and\nprovide an update by Friday\, the 22nd of December. If the appointment of regents has not\nimpacted your entity\, the regent should respond directly to this inquiry and inform us if a meeting\ncan be scheduled before the end of December.\nLet us collaborate effectively to support IAOP in our collective efforts. Your prompt cooperation\nin this matter is greatly appreciated. \nFraternally in Saint Dominic\,\nBr. Georges Alahou\, O.P.\nIAOP Councillor for Intellectual Life\nDakar (Senegal) \nP.S. I am including Fr. Roger Gaise (Socius for Africa) and Fr. Carlos Pablo Sicouly (Socius for\nIntellectual Life) in copy. \n  \nObjet : Demande en vue de l’organisation d’éventuelles réunions et de l’état d’avancement de\nnotre projet \nChers Recteurs et Coordinateurs des études\, \nJ’espère que ce message vous trouve en bonne santé. Je m’adresse à vous pour obtenir des\néclaircissements sur des questions spécifiques relatives à notre projet en cours concernant la\npublication du premier numéro du Journal sous le label de l’IAOP.\nEn raison du report de notre réunion prévue en novembre\, dû à la nomination officielle attendue\nde nouveaux régents pour remplacer ceux qui ont terminé leur mandat\, je ne dispose\nactuellement d`aucune information sur cette question. Compte tenu de l’urgence de notre\ncalendrier\, il est impératif que nous évaluions les progrès réalisés au sein de nos entités\nrespectives concernant la responsabilité qui nous a été confiée en tant que régents pour la\npublication de travaux scientifiques de nos frères dans la Revue à paraître sous le label de l’IAOP.\nLe numéro inaugural devrait coïncider avec la fête de Saint Thomas d’Aquin\, le 28 janvier 2024.\nAfin d’accélérer l’avancement de notre projet\, je m’adresse à la fois aux régents et aux provinciaux\nou vicaires des entités où des régents ou des coordinateurs doivent être nommés. Il est essentiel\nque nous répondions à la question suivante au sein de nos entités : Le régent supervise-t-il les\nprocessus de collecte des travaux des docteurs de votre entité ? Cette question s’applique\, le cas\néchéant\, aux régents sortants et entrants\, car nous considérons que l’administration est un\nprocessus continu.\nJe prie les Provinciaux et les Vicaires de bien vouloir suivre cette question au sein de leurs entités\net de nous fournir une mise à jour d’ici le vendredi 22 décembre. Si la question de la nomination\nde régents n’a pas eu d’impact sur votre entité\, le régent devrait répondre directement à cette\ndemande et nous informer si une réunion peut être programmée avant la fin du mois de\ndécembre.\nCollaborons efficacement pour soutenir l’IAOP dans ses projets de collaboration. Votre prompte\ncoopération dans ce domaine est sincèrement appréciée. \nFraternellement en saint Dominique\,\nFrère Georges Alahou\, O.P.\nConseiller de l’IAOP pour la Vie Intellectuelle Dakar\n(Sénégal) \nPS. Je mets en copie Fr. Roger Gaise (Socius pour l’Afrique) et fr Carlos Pablo Sicouly (Socius pour\nla Vie Intellectuelle). \n  \n

SUMMARY:Primer Congreso del Círculo Iberoamericano Meister Eckhart
DESCRIPTION:Primer Congreso del Círculo Iberoamericano Meister Eckhart\n“De la fuente misma” Lecturas del Comentario al Evangelio de Juan del Maestro Eckhart\nEl Comentario al Evangelio de San Juan\, escrito por el Maestro Eckhart con toda probabilidad en la primera década del S. XIV\, supone una de sus obras más maduras y\, a la vez\, controvertidas. Marca un camino a seguir que en muchos sentidos es particularmente novedoso en la época. \nAsí\, en este comentario aparecen los grandes elementos del pensamiento eckhartiano: sus principios filosóficos\, su manera de acercarse a la Escritura y de entender la relación entre razón y fe\, el sentido divinizador de la encarnación\, la reflexión sobre el Verbo\, la procesión eterna del Hijo y el nacimiento del Verbo en el alma\, la creación en y por el Verbo\, la relación justo – Justicia\, la unidad en Dios\, etc. \nEstudiosos de la obra del Maestro Eckhart\, de diferentes nacionalidades y sensibilidades\, hombres y mujeres\, se reúnen ahora para analizar y discutir este texto fundamental desde una perspectiva multidisciplinar: teológica como filosófica\, histórica como filológica. Si bien se trata de un texto latino\, ha de ser entendido también en el marco de la obra alemana de Eckhart (Alto Alemán Medio – Mittelhochdeutsch)\, así como en el contexto de la controvertida condena papal de 1328\, la cual\, como puso de manifiesto el conocido Canonista alemán Winfried Trusen ya en 1988\, en modo alguno afecta a la persona ni a la obra del Maestro Eckhart en su conjunto\, sino más bien sólo a una posible interpretación de 28 enunciados extraídos de la misma\, formulados por el autor en la forma particularmente radical – radical en todos los sentidos del término – característica de su pensamiento. \nOrganización: Círculo Iberoamericano Meister Eckhart \nCoordinación: \nBara Bancel Silvia\, Universidad P. Comillas (Madrid) \nGuerizoli Rodrigo\, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (Brasil) \nRuta Carlos\, Universidad de San Martín (Argentina) \nDel viernes 20 al domingo 22 de octubre de 2023\, en Ávila (España)\, en la Universidad de la Mística – Centro Internacional Teresiano Sanjuanista CiTes (https://www.mistica.es/ ).  \nCITeS Website link\n

SUMMARY:CALL FOR PAPERS: Eastern Catholic Theology on the Way of Unification
DESCRIPTION:CALL FOR PAPERS: Eastern Catholic Theology on the Way of Unification\nOn September 21 to 22\, 2023\, an international conference will be held at Charles University in Prague on the topic of “Eastern Catholic Theology on the Way of Unification”. \nThis international conference is intended for everyone interested in the issues of the mutual relationship between the Christian East and West\, which has crystallized in the Eastern Catholic Churches\, whose identity includes elements of the Roman Catholic tradition as well as the traditions of the Eastern\, Oriental Orthodox\, and Eastern Orthodox Churches. The aim of the conference is to discuss the self-identification of these ecclesial communities in light of their development throughout their history. And in particular of the events preceding their unification with the Roman Catholic Church (and of course the other churches sui iuris in communion with the Roman Catholic Church) and those following. We invite contributions from theologians or clergy of these churches\, as well as from all scholars interested in this topic. Our interest is to deepen the dialogue between the Christian East and West and to reveal differences\, but also to find ways of mutual understanding. Topics will cover all the major theological disciplines and fields (biblical theology\, practical theology\, dogmatics\, church history\, spirituality\, missiology\, ecclesiastical art\, etc.). \nTopics \nSpecial attention will be paid to the following thematic areas: \n1. Controversial figures in church history (e.g. Nestorius\, Dioscorus\, Photios\, Mark of Ephesus\, Theodore of Mopsuestia … ) and reflections on their position in Eastern Catholic theology. \n2. Eastern and Oriental theologians and their relationship to the West (e.g. Gregory of Narek\, Isaac of Nineveh). \n3. Historical apologies for unification (e.g. J. Bekkos\, Cardinal Bessarion\, P. Arcudius\, …). \nFor more information\, you may open the IDEO website\nand this external link

SUMMARY:ATI Summer Seminar in Asian Philosophy and Scholasticism\, 2023
DESCRIPTION:ATI Summer Seminar in Asian Philosophy and Scholasticism\, 2023:\nNeo-Confucians and Scholastics on Practical Reasoning\, Deliberation\, and Choice\nSummer Seminar Date: 13-20 July 2023\nLocation: Pontifical University fo St. Thomas Aquinas (Rome\, Italy)\nCo-leaders: Fr. James Dominic Rooney\, OP (HKBU) & Zemian Zheng (CUHK) \nLanguage: English\nATI Summer School Purpose and Aims: to acquaint scholars of Asian philosophical traditions with scholastic thought\, both in its original sources and in contemporary discussions incorporating appeal to scholastic philosophy\, as well as to acquaint those interested in scholastic thought with Asian philosophical tradition in the same way. \n2023 Theme Description:  \nThis seminar is intended to provide a primer for graduate students on the views of the scholastics and Neo-Confucians concerning practical reasoning\, deliberation\, and choice\, hoping to pave the way for fruitful philosophical dialogue between these important traditions by bringing together students working on projects in Asian or medieval philosophy\, ethics\, and metaphysics. Preference will be given to those students already working on issues associated with the theme of the seminar. \nQuestions of ‘free will’ have concerned metaphysicians in the West for centuries. While Confucians have not been concerned with the same questions which primarily concerned Western metaphysicians\, Confucians have analyzed the moral psychology involved in decision-making and choice\, being deeply concerned with the question why individuals act wrongly. \nThis seminar will focus on those shared background matters associated with practical reasoning\, deliberation\, and choice where Western medieval scholastic philosophy and Neo-Confucian Song-Ming era philosophy can offer distinct perspectives on similar issues. \nFormat / General Scheme: \n\nThere will be two or three sessions each day for eight days\, each day alternating between instructors. Each instructor will open with a lecture\, and then we will turn to a seminar-style discussion of the texts and issues at hand. In the final sessions\, we will discuss how the material can be applied to each student’s particular area of interest.\nThe seminar will take place at the Pontifical University of Saint Thomas Aquinas in Rome. Travel stipends are available on a need basis. All accepted participants will be provided with accommodations and meals.\n\nApplications are now open! Click here to apply. Deadline to apply: 28 February 2023 \nPUST-Angelicum Thomistic Institute Seminar link

SUMMARY:Fifth Annual Thomistic Philosophy and Natural Science Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Fifth Annual Thomistic Philosophy and Natural Science Symposium: Uncertainty\, Confidence\, and Truth in the Sciences\n\nJuly 12-16\, 2023 | Dominican House of Studies\, Washington\, DC\nAre there questions that science can answer with certainty? Practicing scientists have developed technical tools for quantifying the confidence they have in their results\, as well as implicit habits for distinguishing “established” science from developments still under debate. These developments give scientists confidence in their work\, but it has proven difficult to consistently communicate the subtleties of their confidence to non-experts. In addition\, as scientists often focus on cutting-edge and disputed topics\, they are less reflective about the confidence and certainty they have in more foundational scientific claims\, for instance: the existence of electrons\, DNA\, or cells. Philosophers of science have engaged in a wide-ranging debate on the nature of scientific claims and whether they can attain real certainty and truth\, but this conversation is often foreign to practicing scientists. \nThis conference investigates the issues of uncertainty\, confidence\, and truth in various scientific disciplines and in the philosophy of science. In particular\, we will investigate whether classical Aristotelian and Thomistic notions such as demonstration and necessity\, as applied to the natural world\, can contribute to the contemporary conversation about truth and certainty in the sciences. \nFeaturing: \nDr. Daniel DeHaan (Oxford University) \nProf. Brian Carl (University of St. Thomas\, Houston) \nFr. Ambrose Little\, O.P. (Dominican House of Studies) \nDr. Connemara Doran (NAS-NRC) \nDr. Steve Mrenna (Fermilab) \nProf. Serena Kim (University of Arizona) \nProf. Lori Watson (Earlham College) \nProf. Dan Kuelber (Franciscan University of Steubenville) \nFr. Gregory Pine\, O.P. (Dominican House of Studies) \nFr. Thomas Davenport\, O.P. (Angelicum) \nCost\, Location\, and Accommodation: \nAll registration costs\, food\, lodging and activities are covered by the Thomistic Institute. \nThis year’s symposium will once again be held in Washington\, D.C. Attendees will stay at Theological College\, 401 Michigan Ave NE\, Washington\, DC 20017\, adjacent to the Dominican House of Studies. Lectures and meals will all be on site. Opportunities for Mass\, Adoration\, and Liturgy of the Hours will be available with the Dominican Friars. \nApplications are due by March 31. \nApplications will continue to be accepted from members of the Society of Catholic Scientists until April 15. \nAPPLY NOW \nThomistic Institute Symposium link\n
