20th October 2008, 09:30 to 21st October 2008, 17:00, The Al-Qasimi Building, Elvet Hill Road, Room 102

The Durham Programme in Risale-i Nur Studies is organising a conference on God, man and mortality from the perspective of Saïd Nursi, to be held in the School of Government and International Affairs, University of Durham, on 20th and 21st October, 2008. The conference aims to explore Nursi's perspective on the Creator-creature relationship and what it means to be human, particularly in the light of man's mortal nature and the inevitability of death. The conference seeks to bring together a wide range of scholarly voices in the arts, social sciences and humanities to deconstruct the various dimensions of the subject in question through the discourse of Saïd Nursi.
