The Other Professor of History at University of Pennsylvania
Author of some of the best books I never wrote on law and religion.
Thank You
Over the years, many persons have generously critiqued my writing one or more times. While it is awkward to acknowledge them each time (if only because these days, those who have improved a piece are considered by some to agree with everything in the final version), I am especially grateful to:
Jane Adolphe, Esq. Jimmy Akin Rev. Kenneth Baker, sj Mark Brumley, MTS Rev. Joseph Fox, op Dcn. Patrick Graybill Fr. Thomas Green Rev. Joe Koterski, sj Fr. Tom Margevicius Angela Peters Nade Peters Nancy Peters Rev. Paul Quay, sj Charles Rice, Esq. Dr. Janet Smith Rev. Brian Van Hove, sj Dr. R. V. Young, Jr.
and
those unsung heroes of academe, the anonymous peer reviewers, who have always evaluated my work on its merits (or lack thereof, as the case may be). |
Biographical Sketch
Dr. Edward N. Peters holds the Edmund Cardinal Szoka Chair at Sacred Heart Major Seminary in Detroit, MI.
Born and raised in St. Louis, MO, Peters attended Chaminade College Preparatory (Class of 1975) and went to Saint Louis University on a musicianship award where he majored in Political Science (B.A. 1979). He was active in campus pro-life activities and Catholic discussion groups, and for two years was a member of the schola cantorum of Msgr. Martin B. Hellriegel's renowned Holy Cross Parish in North St. Louis. Peters attended the University of Missouri at Columbia School of Law where he took his J.D. degree in 1982. He was a Superior Oralist in First Year Moot Court and began writing for religious and legal journals. He remained active in pro-life work and during his third year of legal studies was a teaching assistant in Tate Hall's Legal Research and Writing Program. After graduation from law school, he was admitted to the Missouri Bar Association, and following two years of working in California for educational and religious television projects, he began studies in canon law at the Catholic University of America School of Religious Studies. He earned his licentiate degree (J.C.L.) in 1988, was named a Johannes Quasten Fellow for doctoral studies, and completed doctoral course work in canon law in 1990. Peters' doctoral dissertation, Penal Procedural Law in the 1983 Code of Canon Law was defended in August 1991.
