BRUSSELS (Belgium): conference
Conference
“The Odyssey of the Sacred ”
organized by Emergences
The conference will be followed by a book signing session
Since its emergence, Homo sapiens has felt awe and awe at the power of Nature and has pondered the enigma of its existence. From this sense of the sacred were born all the world's great spiritual and religious movements.
Why is sapiens also a Homo spiritus: the only animal that seeks to give meaning to its life, practices funeral rituals, invents great collective narratives, and often believes in invisible forces?
In this lecture, Frédéric Lenoir will attempt to answer these essential questions and demonstrate the correlation between the great spiritual revolutions and the upheavals of human societies: the transition from the Paleolithic to the Neolithic (sedentarization), the birth of ancient civilizations, the development of empires, modernity and the contemporary era.
