“Christian Marriage: Nature and Sacrament”
October 13, 2011
On October 21 & 22, 2011 the Thomistic Circles Conference, “Christian Marriage: Nature and Sacrament,” will be held at the Pontifical Faculty of the Immaculate Conception in Washington, D.C.. This conference will address a variety of philosophical and theological topics related to marriage, family, sexuality and culture by recourse to Thomistic anthropology and natural law theory. Thus, it will be of particular draw for those interested in the speculative and moral issues relevant to this sacrament in the contemporary period. The Fall 2011 Thomistic Circles Conference will be a dynamic engagement with issues both old and new from the perennial insight and wisdom found in the thought of St. Thomas Aquinas. The following scholars are scheduled to speak at the conference: Dr. Holly Taylor Coolman, Providence College, Dr. Paul Gondreau, Providence College, Dr. Paige Hochschild, Mount St. Mary’s Seminary, Dr. Reinhard Huetter, Duke Divinity School, Dr. Steven Long, Ave Maria University, Fr. Michael Sherwin, O.P., University of Fribourg, Switzerland. This conference is free and open to the public. To register contact Ms. Honya Weeks at (202) 495-3820.
