Theology of the Body study group

Our study group will go on hiatus for the summer--starting early because we've just finished the book. We'll restart the group (and the book) in August, but with a change of day/time: from August-June, the group will meet here and online on Saturdays at 10:30 a.m.

Join us!

International Symposium

Do you need a vital, theologically enriching excuse for a trip to Ireland? It's the 2nd International TOB Symposium!

The 1st International Theology of the Body Symposium, held in Gaming, Austria, in 2007, brought together scholars and popular presenters and invited them to engage in a fruitful dialogue on the many approaches to this broad topic. This 2nd Symposium will present the Theology of the Body itself as a unified whole, approaching it from spiritual, theological, philosophical, anthropological, and ethical perspectives. The Speakers are invited to present individual sections of the work each according to their own expertise. These core talks are complemented by talks placing the Theology of the Body in its historical-cultural, political and medical context. Considering that the Theology of the Body is a pedagogy of the body, all the Speakers will seek to ground the more theological and philosophical reflections in experience, and will touch upon practical ways of teaching the Theology of the Body. The talks will be given in a language that is broadly accessible,that is, not accessible to scholars alone.

(Wish I could go! How about you?)
