Transcendence in the small gestures of life

Workshop

In 2025 Fabio Vicini, Lili Di Puppo, and Francesco Piraino will co-organize a MWN Workshop at the “Cini Foundation” in Venice. Titled “Transcendence in the small gestures of life: Attention and care for nature and humans in Islam and other religious traditions”, the workshop aims to explore spiritual techniques that in Islam and other religious traditions are used to awaken attentiveness and care for the world, other humans, and creation and how these techniques inform the way we study not only religion but also the challenges humankind faces in the contemporary world, particularly the ecological crisis. The CfP will be out in Spring 2025.
