Philosophy celebrates


On November 25, on the occasion of the Feast of St. Catherine of Alexandria, the Faculty of Philosophy at the Pontifical University of the Holy Cross held an academic celebration. The festivities began with Mass in the Basilica of St. Apollinare. After the Holy Mass, the highlight of the occasion took place in the Aula Magna, which was the awarding of the international philosophy prize "Antonio Jannone" to the French philosopher Rémi Brague (Université Paris I Panthéon-Sorbonne).

After the awarding of the prize presented by prof. Cristina Reyes, academic vice rector of the University, prof. Brague gave a Lectio Magistralis in Italian entitled "From prudence to providence, going and coming back". Our seminarians belonging to the Faculty of Philosophy, have actively participated in this academic celebration by being part of the liturgical service and singing for the Mass, as well listening the lectio.
