SUMMARY:Arise\, Let Us Be On Our Way: The Eucharist and Evangelization
DESCRIPTION:Arise\, Let Us Be On Our Way: The Eucharist and Evangelization\nUniversity of Dallas  \nThe Thomistic Institute at the University of Dallas presents a lecture by Fr. Innocent Smith\, O.P. of St. Mary’s Seminary and University titled “Arise\, Let Us Be On Our Way: The Eucharist and Evangelization.” \nTuesday\, April 4 \n6:00 PM \nGorman A \nThis lecture is free and open to the public. \nAbout the Speaker: \nFr. Innocent Smith\, O.P. is Assistant Professor of Homiletics at St. Mary’s Seminary and University. His research interests are at the intersection of liturgy and theology\, including sacramental theology\, homiletics\, liturgical manuscripts\, ecclesiology\, and sacred music. He is a Roman Catholic priest and a member of Province of St. Joseph of the Order of Preachers. He is presently assigned to the Dominican community of Sts. Philip and James in Baltimore\, MD. \nSmith’s forthcoming monograph\, “Bible Missals and the Dominican Liturgy\,” focuses on medieval bibles which contain liturgical texts for the celebration of the Mass. The liturgical selections contained in bible missals give precious insight into both the development of the celebration of the liturgy as well as the processes of customization and design of medieval bibles. Bible missals present a fascinating example of the interpenetration of memory and enactment\, enabling the celebration of the mysteries articulated in the biblical text. \nThomistic Institute lecture link

SUMMARY:Course by Visiting Professor: Rémi Brague
DESCRIPTION:JP2 STUDIES COURSE\nCourse by Visiting Professor: Rémi Brague\nThis week\, we welcome Rémi Brague\, renowned philosopher and Ratzinger Prize laureate\, as Visitng Professor at the Angelicum. Professor Brague will teach an intensive course titled “Europe’s Philosophical Identity” as part of the 2nd Cycle in Philosophy and of the JP2 Studies program run by the St. John Paul II Institute of Culture. The course will begin on March 23 and continue until March 31. Angelicum students are invited to audit the lectures.  \nCourse description:\nEurope is clumsily groping for her political identity. Her far older cultural identity looks easier to assess. Yet\, the question of what European culture might be deserves asking. I suggest to look for the sources (not “roots”) of said identity in the basic experiences of the world which are summarized in the names “Athens” and “Jerusalem”\, and in the way both were mediated by the Roman experience. Europe’s cultural identity proves to be eccentric: the points of reference are neither inside of the European space nor already given. They have to be acquired by learning. Hence an uninterrupted series of “Renaissances”. \nREAD MORE \nIf you wish to participate in the course please contact: jp2studies@pust.it \nCheck here for other courses offered in the current semester at the St. John Paul II Institute of Culture

SUMMARY:The Forgotten History of Science and Faith: Origins of the Myth of the Warfare of Religion with Science
DESCRIPTION:Angelicum Thomistic Institute – Science & Religion Online Series\nThe Forgotten History of Science and Faith: Origins of the Myth of the Warfare of Religion with Science\nLawerence Principe\nJohn Hopkins University\n22 March 2023\n4:30 PM (Rome) / 3:30 PM (London) / 11:30 AM (New York)\nOnline and In-Person at the Angelicum (Aula Minor)!\nLanguage: English \nAlthough repudiated today by all serious historians of science\, the concept of an eternal and inescapable conflict between science and religion remains strong among the general public as well as among a large number of scientists. This talk will begin by examining the historical origins of the concept\, showing how it emerged from a constellation of political\, social\, and\npeculiar personal circumstances of the late 19 th century. It will then explore the resilience of the concept and how\, why\, and by whom it has been perpetuated down to the present day\, and suggests some means by which it could be more effectively countered. \nAbout the Speaker: Lawrence M. Principe is the Drew Professor of Humanities at Johns Hopkins University in the Departments of History of Science and Technology and of Chemistry. He holds a Ph.D in Organic Chemistry from Indiana University\, Bloomington\, and a Ph.D. in History of Science from Johns Hopkins. His research focusses on late Medieval and early modern alchemy/chemistry and the interactions of science and religion. His recent books include The Scientific Revolution: A Very Short Introduction (Oxford\, 2011)\, The Secrets of Alchemy (Chicago\, 2013)\, and The Transmutations of Chymistry: Wilhelm Homberg and the Académie Royale des Sciences (Chicago\, 2020). He also produced the 12-lecture course “Science and Religion” for The Teaching Company. He is the recipient of the Francis Bacon Medal (2005)\, the Franklin-Lavoisier Prize (2016)\, the American Chemical Society’s HIST Award (2020) and the St. Albert the Great Award from the Society of Catholic Scientists (2020) for his scholarly contributions. \nClick Here to Register\nPUST-Angelicum Thomistic Institute website link

SUMMARY:Thomism and Analytic Philosophy: The Promises and Perils of Dialogue
DESCRIPTION:Thomism and Analytic Philosophy: The Promises and Perils of Dialogue\n\nMarch 14 at 2:30 pm – March 15 at 5:30 pm –  Angelicum\, Aula Minor\n\nLargo Angelicum\, 1 Rome\, Italy 00184\nLanguage: English\nTheme of the Conference:\nDialogue across philosophical traditions\, like dialogue across disciplinary fields\, is a dangerous enterprise. It comes with the danger of misunderstanding and the danger of being misunderstood\, the danger of creating difficulties where no difficulties exist\, and the danger of dismissing difficulties that will not go away even if we ignore them. In the contemporary philosophical academy\, moreover\, these dangers are only aggravated by widespread institutional pressures for philosophers to specialize their research. The more we dedicate ourselves to a single topic\, within a single field of a single philosophical tradition\, the less likely we are to engage with scholars who work on other topics in other fields—lets alone other philosophical traditions. \nAt the same time\, dialogue also seems to be uniquely characteristic of philosophy. This is true not just because some of the greatest philosophical works were written in dialogue form\, or because philosophy\, historically\, seems to have sprung out of a dialogical context\, but more importantly because philosophers seem to be uniquely well suited for dialogue: we dialogue with physicists and film-makers\, mathematicians and musicians\, historians\, politicians\, theologians\, and a great many others. It would be strange\, indeed\, if philosophers can dialogue widely beyond the bounds of their own discipline\, but cannot dialogue widely within the bounds of their own discipline. \nThe purpose of this conference\, then\, is to explore the possibility of dialogue between two rich philosophical traditions\, namely\, Thomism and analytic philosophy. We will neither shy away from the dangers that come with attempting such a dialogue\, nor will we turn a blind eye to the benefits that such dialogue may bring. Moreover\, we will be even-handed in our representation of the two traditions. By discussing both the perils and the promises of dialogue from both the Thomistic and the analytic perspectives\, we hope that this conference will serve as an example and an impetus for future collaboration between philosophers in these two traditions. \nSpeakers for the Conference:\nGaven Kerr (St. Patrick’s Pontifical University\, Maynooth)\nPhilip-Neri Reese\, O.P. (Pontifical University of Saint Thomas)\nMack Sullivan (University of Notre Dame) \nClick HERE to register for the conference! \nFollow this event live streamed on our YouTube and Facebook pages. \nFor more information\, you may open the PUST-Angelicum Thomistic Institute website link

SUMMARY:Beauty and Religiosity in Science
DESCRIPTION:  \nBeauty and Religiosity in Science\n9 March 2023\nAula Minor\, Angelicum\nLanguage: English\nBeauty and Science\nWhat role does beauty play in science? To address this question\, this lecture draws on data from the world’s first empirical study of the role of beauty in science\, conducted in the UK\, US\, Italy\, and India. After analyzing surveys of more than 3000 physicists and biologists and in-depth interviews with more than 200 of them\, we identify ways in which scientists’ aesthetic experiences shape the practice of science and the well-being of scientists. The presentation will also assess the relationship between scientists’ aesthetic experiences and their religious/spiritual commitments. \nAbout the Speaker: Dr. Brandon Vaidyanathan is an Associate Professor and Chair of the Department of Sociology at The Catholic University of America. He holds bachelor’s and master’s degrees in Business Administration from St. Francis Xavier University in Nova Scotia and HEC Montreal respectively\, and a Ph.D. in Sociology from the University of Notre Dame. \nDr. Vaidyanathan’s research examines the cultural dimensions of religious\, commercial\, medical\, and scientific institutions\, and has been published in journals such as Business and Society\, Journal of the American Academy of Religion\, Social Forces\, Social Problems\, Sociology of Religion\, Journal for the Scientific Study of Religion\, Journal for the Theory of Social Behavior\, and Work\, Employment\, and Society. His research has been funded by grants from the John Templeton Foundation\, Templeton Religion Trust\, and the Lilly Endowment. \nThis lecture is made possible by a grant from the Templeton Religion Trust (#TRT0296\, PI: Brandon Vaidyanathan). \nClick Here to Register \nFor more information\, you may open the PUST-Angelicum Thomistic Institute website

SUMMARY:JP2 Lectures // Dariusz Karłowicz: Reset or Revolution? Contemporary Problems of Political Stability and Some Ancient Solutions
DESCRIPTION:ST. JOHN PAUL II INSTITUTE OF CULTURE\nOn Wednesday\, March 1\, 2023\, we invite you to the sixth JP2 Lecture\, which will be given by dr Dariusz Karłowicz\, Program Director of St. John Paul II Institute of Culture. The lecture entitled “Reset or Revolution? Contemporary Problems of Political Stability and Some Ancient Solutions” will begin at 3:00 p.m. (CET) in Aula 11 at the Angelicum (Largo Angelicum\, 1\, 00184 Rome). \nCan political and legal stability be a political problem? Is it possible that what seems to be the goal and the best fruit of good policy can lead to degeneration of the political system\, injustice and crisis? How does stability relate to conflicts and deep divisions within Western societies? Has history known political crises similar to the one tearing Western societies apart today? Have effective solutions ever been found to deal with the toxic side effects of stability? If so\, what did they consist of? Can we apply them to our problems? This is a list of questions I will try to answer in my lecture – Dariusz Karłowicz \nDariusz Karłowicz – philosopher\, lecturer\, publicist\, book publisher. Co-founder and editor-in-chief of the philosophical yearbook “Teologia Polityczna” and president of the Saint Nicholas Foundation. In 1997\, he was awarded the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the Institute of Philosophy and Sociology of the Polish Academy of Sciences (thesis under the supervision of Professor Juliusz Domański). In 2005\, he published the book “Socrates and Other Saints”\, which deals with the philosophical foundations of the ideas represented by the early Christians and the Fathers of the Church.

SUMMARY:Modeling\, Idealization\, and Truth: A Dialogue between Contemporary Philosophy of Science and the Aristotelian Tradition
DESCRIPTION:Modeling\, Idealization\, and Truth: A Dialogue between Contemporary Philosophy of Science and the Aristotelian Tradition\n24-25 February 2023\nAula Minor\, Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas (Angelicum)\, Rome\nLanguage: English\nTheme of the Conference: Philosophy of Science & Aristotelian Tradition \nA central theme within the philosophy of science is the importance of idealization\, metaphor and modeling for both how we know\, and what we know\, through the natural sciences. This improved understanding of how the sciences work has led (at least within the philosophy of science community) to the realization that physical theories should not be interpreted literally\, and that the mathematical structure of a theory is not a straightforward guide to the metaphysics of the entities described by that theory. On the other hand\, the philosophical discussion of modeling\, metaphor and idealization — and the relationship of these notions to truth is not new and has a long pedigree within the Aristotelian-Thomistic tradition. This conference brings together philosophers of science and those working within Aristotelian-Thomism to discuss how the resources of this tradition can be brought to bear on contemporary philosophy of science. \nSpeakers Include: \nNicholas Teh (University of Notre Dame)\nJohn O’Callaghan (University of Notre Dame)\nFr Kevin Flannery (Gregorianum)\nJonathan Buttaci (Catholic University of America)\nSantiago Schnell (University of Notre Dame)\nDave O’Connor (University of Notre Dame)\nJames Nguyen (Stockholm University)\nMariusz Tabaczek\, O.P. (Angelicum)\nThomas Davenport\, O.P. (Angelicum) \nPlease click here to Register \nCall for Papers \nRecent doctoral scholars and graduate students are invited to submit proposals (no longer than 300 words) for a short paper addressing topics discussed at the conference\, as well as other issues in the dialogue between science and religion. Please include a short academic biographical note (50-150 words) in the submission that lists any degrees and the institutions where they were obtained\, as well as your current affiliation. All submissions should be emailed TIinfo@pust.it by 1 January 2023 in order to be considered. \nPUST-Angelicum Thomistic Institute Website link: https://angelicum.it/thomistic-institute/event/philosophy-of-science-and-aristotle/

SUMMARY:The Ethics of Reproductive Technologies
DESCRIPTION:Johns Hopkins Medical University\nThe Johns Hopkins Medical University presents a lecture by Prof. Matthew Dugandzic of St. Mary’s Seminary and University titled “The Ethics of Reproductive Technologies.” \nWednesday\, February 22 \n12:00 PM – 1:30 PM \nTurner Auditorium \nAbout the speaker \nMatthew Dugandzic joined the theology faculty at St. Mary’s Seminary and University in 2019 after completing a Ph.D. in moral theology at The Catholic University of America in Washington\, DC. His dissertation\, “A Thomistic Account of the Habituation of the Passions\,” explored the ways in which people can develop virtuous affective inclinations. \nDr. Dugandzic’s scholarship focuses on medieval thought\, especially Thomas Aquinas’ anthropology\, psychology\, and ethics. His work on Christ’s passions recently appeared in the European Journal for the Study of Thomas Aquinas and his other writings on the passions and on bioethics have appeared in New Blackfriars and National Catholic Bioethics Quarterly. His current research focuses on the sources that Aquinas used in developing his understanding of virtue and on recovering ancient and medieval wisdom regarding economics in order to apply this wisdom to contemporary financial problems (like student loan debt). \nDr. Dugandzic has taught courses in fundamental moral theology\, bioethics\, theological anthropology\, and Catholic social teaching. In addition to his work in the academy\, Dr. Dugandzic has also brought his theological expertise to the aid of the Church\, having taught theology to RCIA groups\, catechists\, and candidates for the permanent diaconate. \nIn addition to his doctorate\, Dr. Dugandzic holds a BSc in biology from Concordia University in Montréal\, Québec and an MA in religious studies from St. Joseph’s Seminary in Yonkers\, New York. He and his wife\, Audra\, live in Baltimore\, MD. In his spare time\, he likes to play hockey\, which he enjoys almost as much as reading theology. \nThis lecture is free and open to the public. \nThomistic Institute Conference link

SUMMARY:Msgr. Michael Nazir-Ali // Course “The emergence of the notion of person in the West\, human dignity\, equality and liberty in Christian and secular thought”
DESCRIPTION:ST. JOHN PAUL II INSTITUTE OF CULTURE\nMsgr. Michael Nazir-Ali // Course “The emergence of the notion of person in the West\, human dignity\, equality and liberty in Christian and secular thought”\nAlongside the ‘descending theme’ of Christian influence on governance and law in the western world\, I intend also to explore an ‘ascending theme’ which comes to prominence from the time of St Thomas Aquinas and is developed in the Dominican tradition in a variety of ways. This theme is focused on an emphasis on the person as a moral and spiritual agent\, leading to a greater recognition of agency\, conscience\, choice and consent. As is increasingly acknowledged\, such a view is itself rooted in the biblical witness and\, particularly\, in the thought of St Paul. I hope to go on to ask about its relevance for the debate about ‘natural rights’ in the early modern period and its relation to Enlightenment thought\, both moderate and radical. I shall then consider whether a proper view of fundamental freedoms is best safeguarded by relying on reason alone\, as argued for by some Enlightenment and modern thinkers or whether cumulative tradition is a better guide. There will\, of course\, also be a consideration of personhood in relation to moral debates today about embryology\, abortion\, assisted suicide\, PVS and human relationships. \nThe schedule for the course is:\nTuesday\, 21 February 2023\, 16.30-18.15 (Aula 10)\nWednesday\, 22 February 2023\, 10.30-12.15 (Aula 15)\nFriday\, 24 February 2023\, 14.30-16.15 (Aula 10)\nMonday\, 27 February 2023\, 8.30-10.15 (Aula 15)\nWednesday\, 1 March 2023\, 10.30-12.15 (Aula 15)\nThursday\, 2 March 2023\, 10.30-12.15 (Aula 15) \nMsgr. Michael James Nazir-Ali is a former Anglican bishop who served as the 106th Bishop of Rochester from 1994 to 2009 and\, before that\, as Bishop of Raiwind in Pakistan. He holds both British and Pakistani citizenship and has both a Christian and Muslim family background. From 1999 he was a member of the House of Lords where he was active in a number of areas of national and international concern. He is currently President of the Oxford Centre for Training\, Research\, Advocacy and Dialogue (OXTRAD).\nIn 2021\, he was received into the Catholic Church. \nIf you wish to participate in the course please contact us at: jp2studies@pust.it \nSt. John Paul II Institute of Culture link \n
