Philosophy and Liturgy: Ritual, Practice, and Embodied Wisdom
Calvin College
Grand Rapids, Mich.
May 20-22, 2008

Co-sponsored by Seminars for Christian Scholarship at Calvin College

Hosted by James K.A. Smith, John Witvliet and Nicholas Wolterstorff

This conference brings together leading scholars in philosophy and theology to investigate key themes in worship with the tools of philosophy, with the ultimate goal of informing practice. There is also the reciprocal goal of letting liturgical practice become a fund for philosophical reflection on classic questions and themes. The conference will thus stage a reciprocal encounter between philosophy and liturgy, with the goal of generating a liturgical philosophy, and a philosophically-informed liturgy.
