After Saarinen had opened the event, Gabriel Salmela OP (Tilburg) introduced himself. Saarinen then presented a general description of the themes and structure of our CoE, and also talked about his own research interests and book projects.
Elina Hellqvist, who works in our CoE's Team 3, continued by presenting her research topics under the title 'Recognizing the Other - Sexual Identity and the Church: An Analysis of Current Church Debates in Lutheranism'.
We then heard about Professor Veli-Matti Kärkkäinen's extensive ongoing work on systematic theology. The occasion was also a very nice opportunity to meet Professor Kärkkäinen so soon after he had hosted the visit of some of us at Fuller in connection with the recent AAR conference.
The event was concluded by Gerard J. Ryan SJ (Oxford), who introduced himself and described the recognition-related topics that he is working on.
