Vasilii Kulev — Sun, 06 Dec 2015 19:03:01 +0000

(October 13, 2015) God is a concept which rarely finds any support from the scientists. Most of them don’t even try to include the idea of God in the modern science. And of course, there are exceptions such as Dr. Michael Strauss, who tries to find a scientific explanation of God in his talk “God, Particles and the Cosmos”. Dr. Michael Strauss is the Professor of Physics at the University of Oklahoma.

John Rodrigue – Breaking the Crown: Rebellion and the King’s Image in Early Stuart England

Vasilii Kulev — Sun, 29 Nov 2015 18:38:15 +0000

(October 19, 2015) John Rodrigue talks about the images of kingship and the resistance to it, as these things played out in literature, drama, and polemic. Most specifically, on the “image wars” between the King and his opposition as they wrestled for the hearts and minds of the people — a struggle Charles I seemed to have lost when he lost his head, but that monarchy ultimately won. Historically, the “image wars” were one of the first PR battles to take place in Europe, and certainly in England, after 100 or more years of the printing press. John Rodrigue is an Adjunct Assistant Professor in the Arts, Languages, and Literature Department at AUBG.
