We have begun a Scholars' Collective at Pennamma Bhavanam to study social theory and theology in a more serious manner. Any person who is interested in social theory and theology is invited to join the group. We are planning to organise classes and discussions on various topics on a regular basis. Interested participants will be provided with research guides to work on a topic of their interest. The participants are supposed to write a research paper of 20 to 30 pages length at the end of the first six months, and the papers will be published as a book. All of you are invited to join the collective. The class on "SITUATING THE BODY" by Rev. Mothy awas the first in the lecture series. In his lecture he discussed the advent of the body as a strong theoretical concept and category in Social theory and theology.
