Robert McAfee Brown, professor emeritus of theology and ethics at the Pacific School of Religion, will give a free, public reading from his most recent book and first novel, Dark the Night; Wild the Sea, and will reflect on "The Theologian as Artist and Vice Versa" at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, May 5, in Oak East Lounge of Tresidder Union.
Brown was professor of religious
studies at Stanford for 14 years and served as acting dean of
Memorial Church for a year during the turbulent 1960s. He describes
his new book as "a love story" and hopes, for the sake of
discussion, that many who attend will have read the book, which is
available at the library and at bookstores. The event is sponsored
by Canterbury Episcopal Community, the Department of Religious
Studies, the Department of Creative Writing and the Office of
Religious Life. For more information contact the Rev. Penelope
Duckworth at 725-0070. SR
