SUMMARY:Thomistic Institute lecture: Exploring Finitude - Weakness\, Suffering\, and Faith in Isaac of Nineveh
DESCRIPTION:A Thomistic Institute lecture by Dr Valentina Duca\, from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem\, on Isaac of Nineveh’s theological anthropology.\n \nThe lecture will take place at 7.30pm at Blackfriars (OX1 3LY)\, will be followed by refreshments\, and all are welcome. \nIsaac of Nineveh (7th c.) is the major exponent of East-Syriac mysticism\, which developed in the Church of the East in the 7th and 8th centuries. Some of his writings were translated into Greek\, and then from Greek into other languages of the Christian world\, including Latin and Slavonic. In this way\, Isaac became a central reference for the Orthodox tradition. This talk explores Isaac’s anthropology\, a central element of his thought. Isaac has\, in fact\, a highly original view on the human condition\, which with great modernity places at the center creatural finitude and the consequences of human exposure to suffering and death. Following a brief introduction to Syriac Christianity and East-Syriac mysticism\, this talk will focus on three elements of Isaac’s anthropology: the human condition of limitation and vulnerability\, the ontological state that he calls “weakness” (mḥiluta)\, and the journey of the relationship with these that he outlines. This will enable us to examine Isaac’s understanding of faith\, which must necessarily confront (even extreme) limitations and suffering. I will conclude with a note on Isaac’s best-known affirmations on universal mercy\, which include love for evil people\, wild animals and demons\, showing how this position is rooted in his anthropological perspective\, which may still be meaningful in a contemporary context. \nValentina Duca is a postdoctoral researcher at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. After obtaining degrees in Theology and the History of Religions\, she specialized in Eastern Christianity at Oxford University\, especially Syriac (MPhil; DPhil). She spent two years at the Catholic University of Leuven\, exploring the influence of the thought of Paul and Mark the Monk on Isaac of Nineveh. Her current project involves the production of a critical edition of hitherto unedited writings of Isaac and an analysis of the concept of experience in East-Syriac mysticism. She recently published a monograph titled “Exploring Finitude”: Weakness and Integrity in Isaac of Nineveh (2023) with Peeters\, Leuven (OLA).

SUMMARY:Blackfriars Aquinas Group
DESCRIPTION:The Aquinas Group offers young adults an opportunity to enrich their spiritual and intellectual lives by studying the writings of St Thomas Aquinas. \nWe meet on Mondays in term at 7pm. We begin with a light meal\, then explore a topic guided by one of the friars\, before finishing by praying Compline (night prayer) together in the priory church. This term we will be looking at St Thomas’ philosophical and theological anthropology\, namely his understanding of the human person. We will look at questions such as the relation between body and soul\, how our thinking and willing shape who we are\, and the nature of moral action. We will also consider more theological themes such as grace\, the theological virtues (faith\, hope\, and charity)\, and what happens to the soul after we die.

SUMMARY:'Proclaim Good News to the Poor' - Fr Clifton Harris on ministry in Jamaica
DESCRIPTION:Fr Clifton Harris OP is a Dominican Friar of the English Province who is based in Jamaica along with Fr Peter Hunter OP (formerly at Blackfriars\, Oxford). \nFr Clifton’s work includes ministry to one of the most deprived and violent neighbourhoods in Jamaica\, August Town\, where deaths from gun crime are common\, and where people struggle even to get enough food. \nThe Dominicans not only preach the gospel and provide the sacraments\, but are actively involved in social assistance\, organising food for the poor\, and assisting financially and pastorally to aid students in completing their education. \nFr Clifton will speak of this ministry\, offering personal stories of how hope and goodness can overcome adversity. \nThe friars’ apostolic work in the Caribbean (Jamaica and Grenada) is supported by fundraising in Britain under the ‘St Martin’s Missions’ banner. Fr Clifton’s visit aims to spread awareness of this mission and assist this fundraising so as to ensure that the needs of the poor can be met. \nPreview video\n\n \nAll welcome to attend\, free admission. \nFull promotional video + Online donations
