For 2025 the IMC will have as its theme “Worlds of Learning.” Although individual papers need not address this theme explicitly, nonetheless it offers numerous opportunities for Albertus Magnus scholars. Papers might examine Albert’s role in the creation of the Dominican educational curriculum; the influence of his works through vernacular translations; his reception of Greek, Hebrew, or Arabic sources; and much more. 

The IMC deadline for proposed sessions is September 30, 2024. We invite scholars to submit proposals by September 15, 2024 to Irven M. Resnick (Irven-Resnick@utc.edu) and Mercedes Rubio (mercedes.rubio@villanueva.edu). A proposal requires a title and an abstract not to exceed 100 words. 

Please include your full name; email address; postal address; telephone number; full affiliation details (department, institution); and title (e.g. Dr, Ms, Mr, Professor, etc). Although we would prefer in-person presentations, virtual presentations will also be considered. A ninety-minute session typically offers three papers; each presenter will be allowed 20 minutes, to be followed by 10 minutes of questions and discussion. Papers may be presented in languages other than English, although these may have a more limited audience. It will be necessary to include an abstract in English, nonetheless. 

If you have any questions, please contact either Irven M. Resnick (Irven-Resnick@utc.edu) and Mercedes Rubio (mercedes.rubio@villanueva.edu).
