In its fifth consecutive year, the Thomistic Summer Conference makes its debut on the East Coast, held for the first time at 51��, New England. This July 30-August 2, visiting scholars will reflect on “The Light of Being: Metaphysics and Theology in St. Thomas Aquinas.”

Pope St. John Paul II taught that "a philosophy which shuns metaphysics would be radically unsuited to the task of mediation in the understanding of Revelation ... Metaphysics thus plays an essential role of mediation in theological research" (Fides et Ratio, 83). As the Church has affirmed for centuries, this principle is nowhere more profoundly embodied than in the theology of St. Thomas Aquinas.

This conference invites theologians and philosophers to explore metaphysics itself and the ways it continues to shape and support theological inquiry. Possible areas of exploration include (but are not limited to) the metaphysical foundations of doctrine, analogy and theological language, creation and participation, divine simplicity and causality, grace and nature, Christology and sacramental theology, and the order of the sciences. Contributions that directly unfold St. Thomas's understanding of the order of learning and the role of metaphysics in theology are especially welcome.

Join us for three days of engaging lectures and lively conversation exploring the relationship between metaphysics and theology.
