June 26 Lecture on Theology, Evolution, Human Flourishing (Notre Dame Center) - 5:15 p.m.

Event sponsored at University of Notre Dame, IN "TALES OF THE EX-APES" :

 

Lecture, Q&A, and light reception, free and open to the public! In this talk, Dr. Jonathan Marks, professor of anthropology at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, will explore the emergence of the imaginary -- the universe of metaphors, possible futures, symbolic meanings, remote ancestors, spirits, magic, and most importantly, stories -- as a crucial element in human evolution.
A theological response will be given by Robert Song (Durham University, UK) and Thomas Tweed (University of Notre Dame).

This lecture is offered by Notre Dame's newly ratified Center for Theology, Science, and Human Flourishing (contact mmarvin@nd.edu). The talk is made possible in part by funds from the John Templeton Foundation and the Henkels Lecture Fund, Institute for Scholarship in the Liberal Arts, College of Arts and Letters, University of Notre Dame.
