Philosophy of Religion PG/Faculty Seminar

Philosophy of Religion PG/Faculty Seminar
-

This is a past event

The seminar will run as a weekly discussion of selected texts among faculty and research students within the School of Divinity, History and Philosophy.  

The theme for this session is ‘conscience’, as a locus for studying certain interrelations between biblical theology, natural religion, and the history of moral philosophy.

Readings will be made available roughly one week before each session.

Using the now familiar ‘blended format’, the sessions themselves will take place in the Divinity Library for those able to attend in person as might be allowed, and via MS Teams for all those connecting remotely. 

If you are interested in attending in person or online, please email Dr Edward Epsen at edward.epseniii@abdn.ac.uk with your name and details.
