A Dialogue of Civilizations: Lecture and Booksigning with Jill Carroll
What are the essential principles that bind all human beings together, no matter what our religious beliefs? The Jung Center welcomes Dr. Jill Carroll for a talk drawn from her new book A Dialogue of Civilizations: Gulen’s Islamic Ideals and Humanistic Discourse. Intended as a forum for a discussion among faiths, this book explores the progressive Islamic ideals of Turkish intellectual and philosopher Fethullah Gulen. His theories, alongside those of well-known philosophers – Kant, Confucius, Plato, Sartre, and John Stuart Mill – provide an open conversation across time and culture on such subjects as freedom, education, and inherent human dignity.
A book signing will follow the talk.
