After that date, registrations are not guaranteed. There is a $20 surcharge for late enrollments after the course is closed.) Course Description: The last four popes have made explicit reference to the aspect of Beauty as a path leading to God for the modern heart. This course will take up that invitation made most recently by Pope Francis himself who wrote, "Every form of catechesis would do well to attend to the 'way of beauty’… Every expression of true beauty can thus be acknowledged as a path leading to an encounter with the Lord Jesus.” (Pope Francis, Evangelii Gaudium, 167) Mr. Donaghy will accompany students in walking this Way of Beauty, proposing the necessity of cultivating a contemplative gaze on the beauty of reality (creation and the human person) as the “arrowhead of evangelization” for modern today. Through lecture, guided meditation and instruction on the varied beauty of creation, and human endeavors to capture and convey the Beautiful through a variety of artistic works, we will culminate in the beauty of the human person, God’s masterwork, through the light of St. John Paul II’s theology of the body. Course Outline: “The sweetest thing in all my life has been the longing… to find the place where all the beauty came from...” - C.S. Lewis
An introduction to the art of being human a creature created for its own sake and invited to “choose the better part”: contemplation of the Divine Beauty of God in the world.
A lecture on the sacramentality of creation and the nurturing of a sacramental vision of reality.
A reflection on the attraction and distraction of visible beauty the challenge of seeing things as icons of the Infinite or idols grasped in the moment. Prudence, wonder, reverence, stewardship.
A lecture on the power and purpose of eros on the Way of Beauty integration, sublimation, transformation. Cf. St. John Paul II’s TOB audiences, etc., and Pope Benedict XVI’s works.
Entering the Great Conversation. How a heart and head knowledge of great art and literature allows us to tap into the deepest questions of humanity throughout the ages.
Reflecting on Beauty and the saints as an "arrowhead of Evangelization.” The Beauty of prayer and the spiritual life, liturgy and the discernment of vocation. Course Materials:
