All are welcome to this term's series of seminars on aspects of the thought of St Thomas Aquinas. It takes place on Thursdays from 4.30pm - 6.00pm in the Aula at Blackfriars (64 St Giles', Oxford).
The list of speakers and topics is as follows:
24 January - Ralph McInerny on 'Ordinary Knowledge of God'
31 January - Aidan Nichols OP on 'St Thomas and the Sacramental Liturgy'
7 February - Joshua Hochschild on 'Analogy in Logic, Metaphysics & Theology: Did St Thomas change his mind about Proportionality?'
14 February - Hector Delbosco on 'The Convergence between Aristotelianism and Platonism in Aquinas' Metaphysics'
21 February - Lawrence Dewan OP on 'First Known Being and the Birth of Metaphysics'
28 February - Fran O'Rourke on 'Joyce and Aquinas'
Is "Hilary 2008" a political message? Or where the seminar is to be held?
ReplyDeleteNeither. It is 'Hilary', not 'Hillary' (presuming you were thinking of the US presidential candidate). And it refers to when rather than where. The second Oxford term is called 'Hilary' because it begins round about the feast of St Hilary of Poitiers. The seminar, as the post explains, will take place in the aula at Blackfriars, on Thursdays from 16.30 to 18.00.
ReplyDeleteI hope these lectures could be posted on line? I live near the OP House of Studies in Washington DC. I wish I could attend all the lectures! They sound most edifying.
