The Anabaptists & Philosophy Roundtable is an occasional webinar series featuring scholars discussing Anabaptist life and thought in relation to philosophical themes, topics, and methods. The series is sponsored by Toronto Mennonite Theological Centre (TMTC), Doopsgezind Seminarium, Fresno Pacific University, the Institute of Mennonite Studies, and Pandora Press. Our events typically include a paper presentation and respondent, followed by open discussion among participants. We hold events online three to four times per year.
Our 27 April 2022 event featured Dr. Maxwell Kennel (University of Toronto), who gave a paper entitled "Anabaptism contra Philosophy: On Violence, Enmity, and Interdisciplinarity."
A response was provided by Dr. Christian Early (James Madison University).
Dr. Maxwell Kennel is a SSHRC Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department for the Study of Religion at the University of Toronto, the author of Postsecular History: Political Theology and the Politics of Time, and the Director of the Pandora Press.
The presentations and Q&A session were recorded and we are pleased to make those available online.
