Poetics and Christianity Conference 2009
Sep 30th, 2008 by Debra Murphy
The international conference, Reason, Fiction and Faith, to be held in Rome, 20-22 April 2009, forms part of the biennial “Poetics and Christianity Project” series at the Pontifical University of the Holy Cross.
The Conference will provide an occasion for scholars, academics and artists to reflect not only on Flannery O’Connor and her work but also on the issues that both raise, such as
• the artistic use of humor,
• moral vision in narrative art,
• the relationship of reason to art and faith, and
• the various ways that Christian faith illuminates and is reflected in literature, music, film, sculpture and painting.
