This year marks 1,650th anniversary of the birth of St.
Augustine of Hippo and Villanova is honoring him in a way he would have
appreciated, intellectual inquiry.
On Thursday, Sept. 30, the Rev. Brian E. Daley, S.J., the Catherine F.
Huisking Professor of Theology at the University of Notre Dame, delivered
the 2004 St. Augustine Lecture.
 His
topic was “Word, Soul and Flesh: Origen and Augustine on the Person of
Christ.” Father Daley was welcomed by the Rev. Thomas F. Martin, O.S.A.

Center at the University.
On Wednesday, Nov. 17, the Vivian J. Lamb Lecture
Series on Augustinian Thought and the Sciences will host Dr. Kenneth Miller,
professor of biology, Brown University, who will lecture on “Looking for God
in All the Wrong Places: Evolution and the Challenge from ‘Intelligent
Design.’” The lecture will take place from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. in the
Villanova Room.
