SUMMARY:The Vocation of a Lawyer and the Virtues
DESCRIPTION:The Oxford Chapter of the Thomistic Institute\, in collaboration with The Aquinas Institute\, welcome Prof Ryan Meade \nThis lecture will discuss the vocation of a lawyer from the perspective of virtue\, specifically the four cardinal virtues of prudence\, justice\, fortitude and temperance. These virtues are the hinges of happiness for every person\, but they play out in different ways the circumstances of a person’s life. In this talk the speaker will connect how the cardinal virtues can be reflected in the role of lawyers in civic society and in their dealings with clients to support their professional vocation and help lawyers see the ways they can ennoble their lives and society. \nProfessor Meade\, JD\, is an Aquinas Institute Visiting scholar focusing on law and philosophy. His academic research while at Blackfriars focuses on theories of justice in the context of regulations as well as the role of ethics in company law. \nHe teaches law at Loyola University Chicago School of Law where he is Director of Regulatory Compliance Studies in the Beazley Institute for Health Law and Policy and the Center for Compliance Studies. He also works in the area of bioethics and comparative healthcare systems. \nHe received a Doctor of Law degree from Cornell University and a BA in history from Northwestern University. \nVenue: Lecture Room 3\,  Andrew Wiles Building — Maths Institute \nAll are welcome.

SUMMARY:Passions and the Life of Virtue
DESCRIPTION:Passions and the Life of Virtue: Taming the Menagerie Within \nSr Catherine Joseph Droste\, OP\nProfessor and Vice-Dean of Theology at the Pontifical University of St Thomas in Rome (The Angelicum) \nThe last decades have witnessed renewed interest in virtue and virtue ethics\, but an authentic study of virtue requires self-knowledge and a healthy understanding of passion. Growth in virtue demands that unruly passions\, “the menagerie within” (Servais Pinckaers)\, be recognized\, respected\, but also tamed\, by bringing them under the guidance of reason. In this context\, this presentation explains attainment of true virtue by integrating Thomas Aquinas’s teaching on the proper relationship between passion and the rational powers with elements of Catherine of Siena’s teaching on “self-knowledge.” \n7:30 PM at Blackfriars Hall.
