The Theology and Art of The Five Quintets

with Jeremy Begbie, Richard B. Hays, and Micheal O’Siadhail

Micheal O’Siadhail introduced and read from his award-winning book of poetry, The Five Quintets. As Dante summed up the Middle Ages, this work offers a sustained reflection on modernity, both a taking stock and a renewed vision for the first-ever global century. Jeremy Begbie also played two pieces specially composed for The Five Quintets. This performance was followed by a conversation between Richard Hays and Micheal O’Siadhail and then by questions and responses from the audience.
