Meeting to prepare colloquium 450 years Council of Trent

12-07-2010

On the 4th of December 2013, we will commemorate the fact that 450 years ago, the Council of Trent (1545-1563) was solemnly brought to a close. This Council had an enormous impact on developments in religion, politics, art and culture, in Europe and beyond.

For this reason, the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, the Université Catholique de Louvain (Belgium), the Melanchthon-Akademie in Bretten (Germany), together with the foundation Refo500 (the Netherlands), have taken the initiative to organize an international colloquium in December 2013, which in all probability will take place in Leuven. This colloquium aims at placing the Council of Trent once again on the contemporary research agenda, through bringing together researchers from different disciplines and (confessional) backgrounds.

To prepare the colloquium, a meeting will take place on September 7th and 8th in the Melanchthon-Akademie in Bretten. Please contact for more information and registration the Melanchthon-Akademie in Bretten.
