0:00.0 | Hello and welcome back to the Temistic Institute podcast for this most recent installment of off-campus conversations. |
0:16.1 | I am Father Gregory Pine, an assistant director of the Temamistic Institute, and I'm very delighted for |
0:22.1 | this particular episode to be joined by Father Romanus Cesario. Thanks so much for joining Father |
0:26.6 | Romanus. It's my pleasure. Thank you for having me. Wonderful. Well, I suspect that many of our |
0:33.3 | listeners will know you from past lectures that you have given at Thomistic Institute chapters or |
0:38.4 | conferences. I recall in a particular way a lecture that you gave at Harvard for the graduate |
0:42.7 | chapter and a lecture that you gave for the Dominicans and Renewal of Tomism Conference in 2013, |
0:48.5 | both of which were wonderful contributions. And then your many publications and interventions in ecclesial things. |
0:56.0 | But for those who don't know you, would you just say a word of introduction, who you are, where you're from, |
1:01.0 | and the types of ecclesial work in which you're involved? |
1:04.0 | Well, my name, as already mentioned, is Romano Cesario, and I'm Dominican priest like Cloud of Pine. We belong to the same |

1:43.3 | And I began my graduate studies with Father Coleman O'Neill, an Irish- Dominican. |
1:51.3 | I returned to Washington, and I've had three assignments throughout the more than 50 years of my |
1:56.9 | priesthood. |
1:58.0 | The first was at the House of Studies in Washington. |
2:02.8 | The second was at St. John's Seminary Daraas is in seminary in Boston. And after reaching well retirement aid by any standard, |
