Muslim, Christian, and Jewish Views on the Creation of Wealth

Date: April 23-24, 2007

Location: Hesburgh Center Auditorium
University of Notre Dame


What role can and should the Abrahamic religions play in the creation of wealth? Scholars from the United States, Europe, and the Middle East will address this question from multiple viewpoints.

The focus on wealth creation is of particular relevance for three reasons: First, the process of wealth creation in the last 50 years has showed both winners and losers, which poses the question why some nations are so rich and some so poor. Second, the worldwide discussion about "corporate social responsibility" or CSR seems to overlook the question how companies can and should create genuine wealth. Third, the firm's objective of "maximizing shareholder value" or "adding value" is widely assumed without critical examination in economic and ethical terms.

The conference is sponsored by:

Mendoza College of Business with the Center for Ethics and Religious Values in Business and the Institute for Ethical Business Worldwide
Department of Economics and Policy Studies
Department of Philosophy
Department of Theology
Erasmus Institute
Helen Kellogg Institute for International Studies
Joan B. Kroc Institute for International Peace Studies
Nanovic Institute for European Studies

  • Location: Browning Family Cinema, Marie P. DeBartolo Center for the Performing Arts

INTO GREAT SILENCE (2005); Directed by Philip Groening
Midwest Festival Premiere
”Through unrushed rhythms and a harmonious mise-en-scène, Mr. Gröning finds beauty in a mote of dust, a patch of newly tilled earth and the long white eyebrows that hang over an aged blind monk's eyes like a curtain. Grace, it seems, makes little noise.”  -New York Times

Discussion by James Collins, Professor, Department of Film, Television, and Theatre  and Nathan Mitchell, Professional Specialist, Department of Theology

"Films and Faith Weekend: Faces of the Saint" Film and Discussion

THERESE (1986); Directed by Alain Cavalier
French Language with English Subtitles
”This stylized screen portrait of Saint Therese of Lisieux, later to be known as the Little Flower of Jesus, is an extraordinary film as a work of art and as a meditation on spirituality. Catherine Mouchet plays this teenager who wants to dedicate her life to Jesus. Although Therese's parish priest does not think she should enter the Carmelite order at such a young age — especially when her two young sisters are already there, this spunky youth convinces the Pope to intercede for her.
In a series of vignettes, photographed exquisitely by Philippe Rousselot, Therese adapts herself to the rhythms and rituals of convent life — prayers, periods of silence, mortifications of the flesh, the joys and the humiliations of communal living, sexual undercurrents, and the eccentricities of the mother superior and other sisters.” Frederic Brussat

Discussion by Professor, Department of Film, Television & Theatre and Robin Darling Young, Associate Professor, Department of Theology

*Also showing Sunday, October 29th, at 7PM in the Browning Cinema. Discussion to follow.

  • Sponsor(s): FTT, Department of Theology, Decade of the Arts, and the DPAC
  • Location: Browning Family Cinema, Marie P. DeBartolo Center for the Performing Arts

HOUSEHOLD SAINTS (1993); Directed by Nancy Savoca
"Household Saints, a warm, rueful, thoroughly peculiar tale set in Little Italy. The story is filled with strange, homespun miracles, and this single-minded little film could be counted as one of them. Adapted with exceptional skill from the novel by Francine Prose, Household Saints spans three generations in two small Italian families. Those families are brought together with the help of a card game and a butcher shop. "Man deals, and God stacks the deck." In this deeply spiritual film, wild cards and wonders abound.”

Discussion by James Collins, Professor, Department of Film, Television, and Theatre and Cyril O'Regan, Catherine F. Huisking Professor of Theology

  • Location: Browning Family Cinema, Marie P. DeBartolo Center for the Performing Arts

THE FLOWERS OF ST. FRANCIS (1950); Directed by Roberto Rossellini
Italian Language with English Subtitles
”The Flowers of St. Francis is a delicate, fascinating hybrid, a film that is self-consciously, almost militantly, naïve. Never again would Rossellini’s films attain the directness, simplicity, even purity that is so gloriously on display here, a work poised between the theological and the historical. The film focuses, in his words, on "the merrier aspect of the Franciscan experience, on the playfulness, the ’perfect delight,’ the freedom that the spirit finds in poverty, and in an absolute detachment from material things." In this spirit of Franciscan joy and detachment, Rossellini felt, was "the most accomplished form of the Christian ideal," and in his film he tried to capture what he called "the perfume of the most primitive Franciscanism" as preserved in The Little Flowers.” Steven D. Greydanus

Discussion by Donald Crafton, Chair, Department of Music and Professor, Department of Film, Television, and Theatre and Lawrence Cunningham, Reverend John A. O'Brien Professor of Theology

THE NINTH DAY (2005); Directed by Volker Schlondorff
German Language with English Subtitles
”Volker Schlöndorff's engrossing film, The Ninth Day, takes the viewer into an all-too-familiar world of the hell on Earth of Dachau — but with a difference. The grim setting is the so-called Priests' Block, reserved for dissidents among the clergy of all faiths, especially Roman Catholics. The guards are uniformly virulent anti-papists and resort to crucifixion as a form of punishment. The film was adapted from the diary kept by Father Jean Bernard during his internment at Dachau, which included an account of Bernard's actual leave for the purpose of meeting with the bishop.” -LA. Times

DIARY OF A COUNTRY PRIEST (1951); Directed by Robert Bresson
French Language with English Subtitles
”Watching this spiritual odyssey is almost a religious experience in itself, but one which has nothing to do with faith or dogma, everything to do with Bresson's unique ability to exteriorize an interior world. Alone and dying of cancer, a young curate faces the mortal torment of failure in his task of saving souls.” -TimeOut New York
