Is This a Secular Age?: BILL CONNOLLY, SIMON CRITCHLEY & HENT DE VRIES in Conversation April 9, 2009

Do we live in a secular age? What does it mean to say that we do, and what are the benefits, and liabilities, to figuring public space as strictly secular? Bill Connolly, Krieger -Eisenhower Professor of Political Science at Johns Hopkins University, Simon Critchley, Professor of Philosophy at the New School University, and Hent de Vries, Professor of Philosophy at Johns Hopkins University, will discuss these and related themes. Moderated by Jill Stauffer, Resident Mellon Fellow at the Center for the Humanities.
