This seminar is entitled “Rules of Engagement” and will feature speaker Susanna Bede
Caroselli, Professor of Art History, Messiah College at noon on Friday, September 21, in
Room 202 of the Frick Fine Arts Building. “The Academy has long been suspicious of
"non-intellectual" engagement with its objects and areas of inquiry. Christian scholars,
however they define and practice Christian scholarship, are suited to demonstrate the
advantages of “engaged” scholarship: they should not be afraid of spiritual and emotional
engagement; they accept that there are different ways of knowing, and that knowledge
comes through the soul and the heart as well as through the mind.”
