The Legacy of Humani Generis

In commemoration of the seventieth anniversary of the publication of Humani Generis, the Institute for Saint Anselm Studies is pleased to host a two-day conference on June 10-11, 2020 on the teaching and impact of Pope Pius XII’s encyclical letter. The Institute invites papers on the letter’s core interests, including the importance of reason to the life of faith, the successes and limitations of scholastic philosophy, theories of matter and spirit, the metaphysics of the Eucharist, the gratuity of the supernatural order, natural law, human evolution, monogenism and original sin, as well as the movement referred to as the nouvelle théologie and its leading figures, among them Henri Bouillard, Henri de Lubac and Hans Urs von Balthasar. In addition, papers are welcome on the thought of Donald Keefe, S.J., who grappled with these issues in the light both of these writers and of Humani Generis.

Selected papers will be published in The Journal of Saint Anselm Studies.

Due to Covid-19 this conference was cancelled. We plan to offer it in spring 2021.

 

The Saint Anselm Lecture

The 2020 Saint Anselm Lecture will be given by Professor Thomas Williams, who is Professor of Philosophy and Catholic Studies at the University of South Florida. The topic for his lecture is “Can Saint Anselm Have Everything He Wants?” It will address questions of freedom and eternity. The lecture will be on the Feast of Saint Anselm, April 21, at 7:30 in Perini Auditorium. All are invited.

Due to Covid-19 the Saint Anselm Lecture was cancelled. Professor Williams is presenting at the Saint Anselm Conference in April 2021.
