Provost's Sabbatical Luncheon.

Wednesday, March 22.

Andrea Een, Music; Charles Taliaferro, Philosophy.

On behalf of Jim May, Provost and Dean of the College, CILA announces the Spring 2006 "Provost's Sabbatical Series" Luncheon.

Andrea Een will discuss her continuing study of and creation of new tunes for the Hardanger fiddle repertoire, and her research on folk and classical Norwegian music. During her sabbatical, she also investigated the relationship between the Italian /bel canto/ operatic style of the 16th and 17th centuries, and the violin and viola compositions of a group of 18th and 19th century composers. Charles Taliaferro planned several new and continuing projects concerning philosophy of mind and philosophy of religion, and three different residencies in Hong Kong, Rhode Island, and at Oxford. However, he found himself appointed to take over the editorship of the philosophy of religion section of the new (2nd) edition of the Macmillan Encyclopedia of Philosophy. He will discuss how these various experiences and projects fit together during his sabbatical year.
