Prof. Paul Richard Blum - Nicolas of Cusa's De Pace Fidei

Delivered at the KU Leuven Institute of Philosophy on December 2, 2015 as part of the Leuven Newman Society's "Faith & Reason" series. Here Prof. Blum (Loyola University, Maryland) discusses a text by the late medieval/Renaissance thinker Nicolas of Cusa, composed just after the Fall of Constantinople. Nicolas imagines a dialogue taking place in heaven between the Word of God and the representatives of various religions, in an effort to reach some grounds for effecting their unity. Is truth compromised for the sake of peaceful coexistence? Do internal tensions within certain religions indicate the truth of another, or none at all? The ambiguities of Cusa's text provided the fodder for much discussion. An English translation of De Pace Fidei can be found here: http://www.jasper-hopkins.info/DePace...
