Attention and Ritual
Featuring lectures by distinguished academics and Young Scholar papers

Keynote Speakers: Dr Elizabeth Powell, [others t.b.a.]
Date: Saturday 3rd of June
Venue: Divinity Faculty, Cambridge
The Theme: The words Attention and Ritual each ring of something at the heart of Civilisation. While both feature in popular, current discourse around technology, institution, and general human wellbeing, their deeper connotations call to be examined. Why, in previous ages, were the practices, rites and ceremonies of a people matters of the highest significance? Putting them together encourages, from the start, an imaginative aspect in enquiry, bringing out connections and suggestive unities between things, complementing the differentiating mode of enquiry. Thus we invite young students of Philosophy, Theology, Religion, Literature, The Sciences, Traditional Arts, and any related discipline, to open up the topics of Attention and Ritual in a profoundly open-ended way.
