The Von Hügel Institute Working Papers
The Von Hügel Institute Working Papers series showcases findings from innovative research projects on significant contemporary issues. The series offers a forum for examining global challenges and questions of contemporary relevance, seeking to stimulate interdisciplinary dialogue in and across the humanities, the arts and the sciences.
Contributions—including academic papers, reflective essays and lectures—engage critically and constructively with the resources of the Catholic intellectual, cultural and ethical traditions to advance the institute’s scholarly mission, with particular emphasis on fostering dialogue and encounter for the common good.
