Join us on November 7th in McLaren Conference Center for this great public talk, moderated by our Lo Schiavo Chair in Catholic Social Thought. ✨No one person can make a world alone. Each of us develops our sense of what is true and false, good and bad, important and trivial, imperative and forbidden, in a constant feedback loop with other humans. To remove us from these loops is to court the disintegration of these worlds, first in loneliness, and at the far end, insanity. Long standing arguments to this effect, from philosophers like Aristotle, Hegel and Husserl have now been given granular texture and strong reinforcement by the findings of modern science. Actually, though, we want more than a simply coherent world in which to live and work and love. We want to be at home in the world, embedded in a place where we truly belong. Most of us get small glimpses of thorough-going at-homeness in peak experiences of contemplation, s*x, prayer, friendship, aesthetic rapture, intoxication, communal ritual, etc. But there is variation: some cultures seem to place their inhabitants in closer or further proximity to home. Contemporary America stands out as a culture which seems hell-bent on inculcating a vision of the world in which one can never be at home. Our spiritual indigence powers the most prosperous economy the world has ever seen, and now threatens to dissolve our union in a slow, sad, angry process of disintegration and alienation. The situation is urgent. But any conversation about what is to be done must begin with a deep assessment of what in the world is going on in twenty-first century America.

Featuring Joseph A. Brown, SJ on Friday, November 4th in Fromm Hall and via Zoom, at 5:30pm PST. Welcome by Fr. Paul Fitzgerald. Black Catholics were given the mandate to evangelize themselves, in the Pastoral Letter, “What We Have Seen and Heard,” written by the Black Bishops of the United States in 1984. Nearly 40 years Lester, what does such evangelization look like? For Black Catholics, what do we understand to be “prophetic witness”? Even more importantly, what would be the “wilderness” of our time, the wilderness that the great Black Sacred Song urges us to encounter?

10/14/2022

Please join us for a discussion of the arts in Jesuit tradition with the Thacher Gallery’s founding director, Fr. Tom Lucas, SJ. From its earliest moments in 16th century Rome, the Society of Jesus has championed and used the arts as fundamental elements in its strategic toolkit. Although St. Ignatius didn’t have an artistic bone in his body, he understood the tremendous emotive and pedagogical power of art. Even more importantly, his teachings in the Spiritual Exercises underscore creative use of the imagination as a means to encounter God’s revelation in our material world. Fr. Lucas will develop these themes in a richly illustrated presentation. This conversation celebrates 25 years of the Thacher Gallery and this year’s theme of memory and community.
