Proposal submission guidelines<\/a><\/p>\n

Established in 2013, the Indiana University Consortium for the Study of Religion, Ethics, and Society<\/a> (CSRES) is an interdisciplinary association of scholars, academic programs, and research centers from the eight campuses of Indiana University. Our mandate is to aid in the development of research and scholarship to better understand religion, ethics, values, and spirituality in society and to promote collaboration among constituents at IU and beyond. CSRES utilizes and builds upon IU\u2019s extensive strengths in religion and ethics to advance research in key themes.<\/p>\n

Conference Theme: Aristotle famously observed that philosophy originates in wonder. Descartes considered wonder the first of all the passions, a \u201csudden surprise of the soul\u201d that moves the mind toward understanding and away from ignorance. Others have considered wonder a defective state, a stunned response that impedes rather than facilitates the acquisition of knowledge.\u00a0\u00a0 Wonder is the province of the wide-eyed child in the woods, and the wild-eyed scientist in the lab. Scientific wonder beckons us into mystery but may also banish the mysterious and drain away its power.\u00a0 Its virtuous dimensions are said to shade into generosity, humility, and compassion, while its shadow side suggests the lure of unwholesome enchantments and hubristic trespass into forbidden knowledge.\u00a0 Wonder can engender moral caution and respect for otherness\u2014what R.W. Hepburn calls the \u201cconcern not to blunder into a damaging manipulation of another\u201d\u2014but it may also foster the will to mastery and domination. Wonder has also played an important role in the environmental movement since its inception and it remains central to discourse about the planetary future.<\/p>\n
