CV NEWS FEED // Notre Dame University’s de Nicola Center for Ethics and Culture has announced that it is partnering with the Biennial Catholic Imagination Conference for its 24th annual Fall Conference.
The event, titled, “Ever Ancient, Ever New: On Catholic Imagination,” will take place October 31 to November 2, 2024 at the University of Notre Dame. Conference organizers are currently accepting proposals for papers, panels, and performances until July 15, 2024.
“At its 24th annual Fall Conference, the de Nicola Center for Ethics and Culture will consider the idea of the Catholic imagination, its enduring and inexhaustible nature, and how it continues to illumine our modern world,” the University states on the Conference website.
The Conference will focus particularly on the literary arts, and how “men and women of faith continue to draw on the wisdom, wonder, and beauty of the evergreen Catholic tradition to inform a particular mode of understanding and engaging with the world around them.”
American Poet and literary critic Dana Gioia hosted the first Catholic Imagination Conference at the University of Southern California in 2015, “in response to the apparent retreat—or at least marginalization—of Catholic writers and artists from the public square,” according to the University of Dallas, which hosted the Conference in 2022.
