2025 Aquinas Lecture

Dominican House of Studies | Washington, D.C.

An annual lecture in honor of St. Thomas Aquinas held at the Dominican House of Studies in Washington, D.C. The lecture will be given by Prof. Candace Vogler of the University of Chicago.

About the speaker:

Candace Vogler is the David B. and Clare E. Stern Professor of Philosophy at the University of Chicago. Her primary area of research is moral philosophy, with special emphasis on virtue and practical reason. She draws extensively from work by G. E. M. ('Elizabeth') Anscombe, St. Thomas Aquinas, and Immanuel Kant, and sometimes she teaches work by John Stuart Mill. She also works on psychoanalysis (primarily Freudian work and the work of Jacques Lacan), and at the intersections of philosophy and literature and philosophy and film. Vogler is interested in questions about the highest good, about sin, and about moral self-improvement.
