Midori Hartman, Ph.D., assistant professor of classical studies at Albright College, offered the first lecture of the inaugural Elizabeth A. Clark Endowed Lecture Series at the University of Mary Washington, Sept. 19.
For her lecture, “Embracing Imperfection: Applying St. Augustine to the Modern Age,” Hartman reflected on how to use the ideas of the late ancient theologian Augustine of Hippo in the modern age.
Mary Washington’s new lecture series honor’s the founder of the college’s Department of Religion (1964), which is now the Department of Classics, Philosophy and Religion, as well as Christianity as a field of the study.
