Why mark the 1700th anniversary of Nicaea?

For the first CTRS seminar of 2025-26, Dr Sara Parvis, the Senior Lecturer in the Early Christian History at the University of Edinburgh, gave a talk on 'Women and the Reception of Nicaea'. This seminar forms part of the Catholic Theology Research Seminar Series (CTRS). The CTRS is a regular forum for scholarly discussion of pertinent issues in the Catholic traditions of theology and Church. The seminar series ranges across the traditional theological disciplines (scriptural, historical, philosophical, systematic, liturgical, ethical and practical/pastoral), Catholic social thought and practice, and social-scientific approaches to Catholicism.
