REV. FRANCIS X. CLOONEY, S.J. Ph. D.
Rev. Francis Clooney's primary areas of scholarship are theological commentarial writings in the Sanskrit and Tamil traditions of Hindu India, and the developing field of comparative theology, a discipline distinguished by attentiveness to the dynamics of theological learning
deepened through the study of traditions other than one's own. He has also written on the dynamics of dialogue in the contemporary world.

His most recent monograph, His Hiding Place Is Darkness: A Hindu-Catholic Theopoetics of Divine Absence, explores the absence of God in accord with the biblical Song of Songs and the Hindu Holy Word of Mouth (Tiruvaymoli). His new book project delves into the Mimamsa tradition of Hindu ritual theology, as a study of the 14th-century Jaiminiya Nyaya
Mala of Madhavacarya. Fr. Clooney is the Director of the Center for the Study of World Religions - Parkman Professor of Divinity and Professor of Comparative Theology at Harvard University.
