13th ANNUAL FALL CONFERENCEThe Crowning Glory of the Virtues: In his famous work, De Officiis, Marcus Tullius Cicero wrote that in justice, we see “the crowning glory of the virtues.” Countless treatises, encyclicals, verses, and artistic endeavors by a vast array of philosophers, theologians, poets, and painters have explored the manifold aspects of justice, particularly its meaning and its manifestation in our souls and societies. The Notre Dame Center for Ethics and Culture will devote its thirteenth annual Fall conference to the theme: The Crowning Glory of the Virtues: Exploring the Many Facets of Justice. In customary interdisciplinary fashion, this conference will take up the many questions related to both the nature of justice and the varied and often-conflicting ideas of how to establish justice in our hearts and in our world. These questions will be pursued in the disciplinary contexts of philosophy, theology, political theory, law, history, economics, the biosciences, literature, and the arts. The following distinguished individuals have confirmed their participation in this year’s Fall Conference:
Please note: Campus
construction will impact our on-campus conference facilities this fall,
significantly limiting both the number of conference attendees who can
register and the number of presenters we can accommodate. Because of
the space constraints brought on by this construction, this year’s
conference will be smaller than conferences of years past. Thus, we ask those who wish to attend the conference to register early. Registration
will be limited to 300 attendees at the general sessions and 220
attendees at the meals (There will be presentations during the Friday
and Saturday lunches). Registration will open in September and will close when the allotted registration numbers have been reached. Registration opened Wednesday, September 19th at 8AM.
