In an age such as ours where rapid cultural and technological changes seem to overwhelm and destabilize everyday life, we may ask whether our civilization has any sure foundations. It does indeed, argues James Matthew Wilson. In fact, it has six.
In this evening discussion Wilson will review the Six Great Insights of the West that shaped classical and Christian civilization and which provide even today the best account of what the world is and what it means not only to be human but to be fully and richly human. Join us!
James Matthew Wilson is the Cullen Foundation Chair in English Literature and the founding director of the MFA program in Creative Writing at the University of Saint Thomas. The author of fourteen books, his most recent collection of poems is Saint Thomas and the Forbidden Birds (Word on Fire, 2024). The Strangeness of the Good (2020), won the poetry book of the year award from the Catholic Media Awards. The Dallas Institute of Humanities awarded him the Hiett Prize in 2017; Memoria College gave him the Parnassus Prize, in 2022; and the Conference on Christianity and Literature twice gave him the Lionel Basney Award. In addition to his role at the University of Saint Thomas, he serves as poet-in-residence of the Benedict XVI Institute, scholar-in-residence of Aquinas College, editor of Colosseum Books, and poetry editor of Modern Age magazine.
