Kathryn Tanner gives the 2019 Ferguson Lecture at 4 p.m. on Thursday 7 March.
The title of the Ferguson lecture is Grace and the Temporalities of Capitalism and develops an aspect of her most recent research. You’ll find a short blurb below.
The fusion of past, present, and future within contemporary capitalism hinders its critique: a fundamentally different future becomes unimaginable. A Christian understanding of grace expands the range of imaginative possibility by offering a counter-temporality in which past, present, and future are broken apart rather than collapsed.
The lecture will take place on Thursday 7 March at 4 pm in the Ellen Wilkinson Building, Graduate School Conference Room, C1.18 at the University of Manchester. (The Ellen Wilkinson building is no. 77 on the campus map. You can access the campus map here.) The lecture will be followed by a wine reception at 5.30 pm.
