Once the course gets going in September, I'll be blogging here regularly about our lectures, readings and discussions.
In the meantime, please enjoy this image of the Blessed Ludovica Albertoni, a Baroque sculpture created by Bernini in the 1670s.

Do you notice how the motifs of sensuality, death and religiosity converge in this marble masterpiece? We'll have a chance to explore the meaning and implications of this confluence as the course proceeds.

I'm looking forward to our time together this Fall!
