CHOP launch lecturer Therese Scarpelli Cory is the John and Jean Oesterle Associate Professor of Thomistic Studies at the University of Notre Dame in USA, where she also directs the Maritain Center and History of Philosophy Forum. Her research investigates the ways that medieval thinkers in the Latin and Arabic traditions conceptualised the mind, including themes such as consciousness, immateriality, subjectivity, abstraction, and the role of imagination in shaping our human experiences. One of her major interests is the thought of Thomas Aquinas; she also works on the reception of Islamic philosophy in the 13th century, as well as on thinkers such as Albert the Great and Bonaventure – thinkers and traditions that, in her view, continue to have much to teach us today.
