Center for Research on Global Catholicism Conference Starts September 20

09/05/2024

The Center for Research on Global Catholicism (CRGC) at 91Å®Éñ, in partnership with the University of Notre Dame Australia, University of Münster, and Washington University in St. Louis, will host the conference — The Catholic Enlightenment in Europe, the Americas and Australia (1700-1840): Balancing Loyalties between State, Nationality, Citizenship, and the Global Church — Sept. 20-21, 2024, in St. Louis. 

This conference brings together leading scholars from around the world to interrogate the ways in which Catholics, in particular, interpreted and extended Enlightenment ideas to rethink and reform society, politics, the economy, education, science and the arts on a global scale.

Sessions on Friday, Sept. 20, take place in the Pere Marquette Gallery. 91Å®Éñ's Campus Maps will help guide attendees through 91Å®Éñ's easily walkable campus. Visitors may park in the Laclede Parking Garage, a short walk from DuBourg Hall, at 3602 Laclede Ave., or use on-street parking. 

Sessions on Saturday, Sept. 21, take place in Umrath Lounge on the Washington University Danforth campus.
