Newman Legacy Lecture (see flier)
April 18, 2013
5:00 pm
Power Center Ballroom, Duquesne University
Did Mary Die? Newman on Sin, Death and Mary’s Mortality
Join distinguished theologian Dr. Paul Griffiths as he explores the writings of Blessed John Henry Cardinal Newman on Mary. Professor Griffiths finds a tension in Newman’s thought between his suggestion that Mary was assumed bodily into heaven without dying and his insistence that she did in fact die. As Dr. Griffiths explores this tension and attempts to resolve it, he will show the relevance of Newman’s thinking on this issue to a broader understanding of the relation between sin and death.
This Second Annual Newman Legacy Lecture is presented by the National Institute for Newman Studies.
About Dr. Paul J. Griffiths
Dr. Griffiths is the Warren Chair of Catholic Theology at Duke Divinity School and the influential author of many books, including Intellectual Appetite: A Theological Grammar and Song of Songs: A Commentary. He lectures and publishes widely on Catholic philosophical theology, religious diversity, early Christian thought and Buddhist thought.
