International congress:"The Galileo Affair"-A historical, philosophical & theological re-examination
INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS
The Galileo Affair. A Historical, Philosophical and Theological Re-Examination
Florence, Italy, May 26-30 / 2009
Download Program
 
The United Nations 62nd General Assembly, welcoming resolution 33 C/25 presented in 2003 by Italian Government and adopted by UNESCO (the General Conference of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) on 19th October 2005, has declared 2009 the International Year of Astronomy.
The year 2009 marks the 400th anniversary of the first use of the telescope for astronomical observation by the Italian scientist Galileo Galilei (1564 -1642) in 1609, that led to the expansion of the boundaries of the “known universe” and triggered a scientific revolution which profoundly affected our worldview. Italy is at the forefront in promoting this event and Florence, together with Pisa and Padua, - will be the world capital of this celebration.
The Niels Stensen Foundation, a Jesuit-run cultural center in Florence, Italy, has organized a world congress for spring 2009, inviting world experts to make a historical, philosophical and theological re-examination of the Galileo case in the light of the most recent scientific and historical research. The congress will take place in the most prestigious institutions and facilities in Florence.
For the first time after 400 years, members of the Vatican Observatory, the Pontifical Council for Culture, The Sciences Academy and many other Institutions, that were historically involved in the Galileo affair, are among the experts invited to the congress with a view to showing how "recent scientific and historical research" might alleviate the "tension and conflict" still clouding the relationship between the church and science.
