Saint\u00a0John\u00a0Paul\u00a0II Chair of Theology.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n The relationship between faith and reason is one of those couplets in Catholic theology which keeps bobbing up just when you think that the debates have been put to bed. This lecture will take the form of an intellectual history tour beginning with the treatment of revelation in Dei Filius (Vatican I), moving through to the more historical presentation of revelation in Dei Verbum (Vatican II), with a detour through the French Thomist debates of the 1930s, then onto the theology of Benedict XVI which brings love into the faith-reason relationship, and finally, concludes with reference to the treatment of the theological virtue of faith in Lumen Fidei.<\/p>\r\n [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\r\n [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”114″ img_size=”full”][vc_single_image image=”142″ img_size=”full”][vc_btn title=”David Collits: Response to Faith, Reason and Love” style=”outline” shape=”square” size=”lg” i_icon_fontawesome=”fa fa-file-pdf-o” add_icon=”true” link=”url:%2Fsatc%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2018%2F09%2FProfTraceyRowlandFaithReasonandLove.pdf||target:%20_blank|”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\r\n Professor Tracey Rowland holds two doctorates in theology, one from the Divinity School of Cambridge University (the civil PhD) and one from the John Paul II Institute at the Pontifical Lateran University (the pontifical STD) in addition to degrees in law and philosophy.<\/p>\r\n She began her studies at the University of Queensland where she completed her honours degree under the supervision of the Czech political theorist Vendulka Kubalkova.
