Denney Hall

The Department of Near Eastern Languages and Cultures invites you to a lecture on Tuesday (2/10) at 4 p.m. in 206 Denney Hall. Rodrigo Adem is a Charlotte W. Newcombe Doctoral Dissertation Fellow at the University of Chicago and will examine the historical genesis of two seminal rationalist schools of island theology, Mu’tazilism and Ash’arism. The lecture will explain how the nature of each school’s professed “rationalist mandate” colored its respective outlook at the economy of salvation in Islam.
