This
conference took place, as part of the "William James Lecture on Religious
Experience" series, May 25-27,
2007, in Harvard University's Lowell Lecture Hall, to assess the interactions,
contributions, and continuing resonance of two major American philosophers and
Harvard professors.
Speakers included John Clendenning, Harvey Cormier,
Mathias Girel, Peter Hare, Jacquelyn Kegley, James T. Kloppenberg, Felicitas
Kraemer, David Lamberth, John Lachs, John J. McDermott, Frank Oppenheim,
Hilary Putnam, Robert Richardson, Sandra Rosenthal, Linda Simon, Chris Skowronski, Ignas Skrupskelis, Cornel West, and others.
All lectures were free
and open to the public, and may be viewed from the
conference program page. A volume
that will gather written adaptations of the presentations is forthcoming; more
information on that book will be available here later in the spring 2008
semester.
