Podcast appearances and mentions of Richard A Rosengarten

Dean and Associate Professor of Religion, Literature and Visual Culture, Rosengarten pursues interests in genres of narrative (especially the novel), in hermeneutics, literary theory, and aesthetics, and in the development of religious thought through the "long" eighteenth century. His book Henry Fielding and the Narration of Providence: Divine Design and the Incursions of Evil locates Fielding's novels in the contexts of the debates about poetic justice in the drama, and the deism controversy's discussions of natural religion toward the claim that the eighteenth-century English novel engages broader theological questions about the security of classic notions of providential intervention in a post-Newtonian universe. He is completing a book on Roman Catholicism between the Vatican Councils under the title Styles of Catholicism: Flannery O'Connor, Frida Kahlo, Simone Weil, and plans to undertake a study of satire as a mode of apophatic language from Rabelais to Swift. Wednesday Lunch is a Divinity School tradition started many decades ago. At noon on Wednesdays when the quarter is in session a delicious vegetarian meal is made in the Swift Hall kitchen by our student chefs and lunch crew. Once the three-course meal has reached dessert each week there is a talk by a faculty member or student from throughout the University, a community member from the greater Chicago area, or a guest from a wider distance.

The 514th Convocation of the University of Chicago was held in Rockefeller Memorial Chapel on March 22, 2013. Richard A. Rosengarten, Associate Professor of Religion and Literature in the Divinity School, delivered the convocation address, titled “In Retrospect.” In his address, Rosengarten invites the graduates to think about what it may mean to celebrate their work in the context of the University’s motto, “Crescat scientia; vita excolatur,” which he translates as “Belief in knowledge enhances life.” He discusses the retrospective aspect and cognitive dissonance of narratives and how these fit together to create the magic of stories.
