Description

Gestures of Grace is a celebration of the life and career of Robert Sweetman, H. Evan Runner Chair in the History of Philosophy at the Institute for Christian Studies (2001-present). These essays, written by students and colleagues, testify to the remarkable breadth and depth of Sweetman's research and teaching, from his early scholarly career at the Pontifical Institute of Medieval Studies to his time at ICS. Throughout the volume, there is extensive engagement with Sweetman's influential historical scholarship on topics such as the emergence and development of the Dominican order in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, medieval women authors, Thomas Aquinas and Duns Scotus, and indeed on Sweetman's own systematic contribution to the nature and promise of Christian scholarship today.

He has published in journals such as Res Philosophica, Ergo, Faith and Philosophy, and Philosophy East and West, among others, and is the lead editor of Philosophical Perspectives on Existential Gratitude (2023). Héctor A. Acero Ferrer is associate director of the Institute for Christian Studies' Centre for Philosophy, Religion, and Social Ethics. In addition to this role, Héctor is program coordinator of Martin Luther University College's BA in Christian studies & global citizenship, where he teaches courses on social justice, contextual theology, and intersectionality.
