We welcome Dr. James DeMasi as he discusses
Sloth and the Sabbath, or Why Working too Hard is Lazy
When we imagine "sloth" today, an image of lying around not working will most likely come to mind. However, much of what we conceive of as "lazy" and its opposite, "industriousness," for centuries was regarded in the inverse by Catholic moral thinkers. In this talk, [I] will work through common conceptions of sloth, sabbath, and work, trying to recover a long-standing Catholic notion of leisure and its opposite, acedia, or what the monks called, "The noon-day Devil."Thursday, June 19, 2025
We welcome Samuele Bozzolla as he presents on “The Hidden Gems of Italy Part 2. Exploring the churches and towns of the lesser known Italy”.
