The Double Laughter of Faith: Mirth in Christianity and Literature

“In the heart of the Passion lies the divine mirth,” writes Robert Farrar Capon. This is an astonishing, almost destabilizing, affirmation.

With the help of novelists, essayists, poets, priests, and saints, we will together dig into the meaning and implication of this word mirth and how it variously forms, enchants, disrupts, disorders, and playfully invites us to ponder who God is and who we are in Him.

These seminars took place on November 8 & 15, 2020.
