B.K. Smith Lecture in Houston Mar 22, 2012 7:30 PM

Free and open to the public

Thursday, March 22, 2012 7:30 PM to 9:00 PM The University of St. Thomas History Department presents the B.K. Smith Lecture featuring Dr. Sally N. Vaughn on March 22 in Cullen Hall. Dr. Vaughn's lecture topic will be “St. Anselm: The Statesman’s Philosophical Views of Politics.” Dr. Vaughn is a Professor of History at the University of Houston. St. Anselm of Canterbury was a remarkable man of many dimensions: theologian, master of meditation, teacher, friend, missionary, and even politician, in which role he bested two kings and two popes. This talk will integrate the many sides of this great saint beginning with his 30-year tenure as teacher, prior and abbot of the Norman Abbey of Bec, through the predominantly political manifestations of his 16-year career as Archbishop of Canterbury in England.
