Thomas Merton is perhaps the single most important American Catholic writer of the 20th century, and his writings continue to remain startlingly relevant today. In this course, we will read and discuss a broad sample of essays, poems, and letters from across his corpus of work. Classes will meet Tuesdays from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. in the Eckelkamp Center for Campus Ministry on SLU’s campus on the following dates: 2/10, 2/17, 2/24, 3/3, 3/17, 3/24, 3/31, 4/1.
Suggested donation: $10/class, $60 for all 8 classes.
