Dr. Antonio Alonso, Assistant Professor of Theology and Culture and Director of Catholic Studies, Candler School of Theology at Emory University, will speak, followed by a moderated discussion with Sr. Adria Connors, CSC, and Jackie Rojas ’21 and table discussion with all present.
Dr. Tony Alonso works at the intersection of theology and culture, with a particular focus on worship and ritual practices. His articles have appeared in a range of journals including Modern Theology, Worship, and Liturgy. Alonso’s current research centers on the relationship between consumer culture and Eucharist as well as the theological implications of the work of Michel de Certeau. In addition to his scholarly work, he is a widely published composer of liturgical music in both English and Spanish; his music appears in hymnals across denominations throughout the world. He is on the board of the Aquinas Center for Theology, a member of the Academy of Catholic Hispanic Theologians in the United States, the National Association of Pastoral Musicians, and the Catholic Theological Society of America.
