William Desmond engages the philosophical work of Pascal, Kant, Hegel, Nietzsche, Shestov, and Soloviev, among others, and pursues with a philosophical mindfulness what is most intimate in us, yet most universal: sleep, poverty, imagination, courage and witness, reverence, hatred and love, peace and war. Being religious has to do with that intimate universal, beyond arbitrary subjectivism and reductionist objectivism. In this book, he attempts to look at religion with a fresh and open mind, asking how philosophy might itself stand up to some of the questions posed to it by religion, not just how religion might stand up to the questions posed to it by philosophy. Desmond tries to pursue a new and different policy, one faithful to the light of this dialogue.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 235mmItem Length: 159mmAuthor: William DesmondGenre: Philosophy & SpiritualityBook Series: Perspectives in Continental PhilosophyRelease Year: 2005 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
