David Elliot

Prof. David Elliot, the Grace P. Hobelman Chair in Catholic Moral Theology, dives into the transformative power of wonder and awe. He illustrates how St. Thomas Aquinas's concept of 'admiratio' connects these emotions to moral reflection. The dialogue reveals how wonder and fear interlace to enrich our moral compass and drive intellectual growth. Elliot emphasizes how these emotional experiences are essential for engaging with greatness, reshaping our perspectives on ethics and personal development.
