Looking Beyond? Shifting Views of Transcendence in Philosophy, Theology, Art, and Politics

In addition to organized religions, there is a notable movement towards spirituality that is not associated with any institutions but in which experiences and notions of transcendence are still important. Transcendence can be described as God, the absolute, Mystery, the Other, the other as alterity, depending on one's worldview. In this book, these shifts in the views of transcendence in various areas of culture such as philosophy, theology, art, and politics are explored on the basis of a fourfold heuristic model (proposed by Wessel Stoker). In conversation with this model, various authors, established scholars in their fields, explain the meaning and role, or the critique, of transcendence in the thought of contemporary thinkers, fields of discourse, or cultural domains. Looking Beyond? will stimulate further research on the theme of transcendence in contemporary culture, but can also serve as a textbook for courses in various disciplines, ranging from philosophy to theology, cultural studies, literature, art, and politics. | Aggiungi al Carrello |

Where Heaven and Earth Meet The Spiritual in the Art of Kandinsky, Rothko, Warhol, and Kiefer
| Edizione: | Brill, 2012 | | Collana: | Currents of Encounter |

Indicativamente procurabile in 15-20 giorni lavorativi | | Info disponibilità | Rifornimento in corso | | Prezzo di acquisto | € 61,00 | | Descrizione | Art has always been important for religion or spirituality. Secular art displayed in museums can also be spiritual, and it is this art that is the subject of this book. Many of the works of art produced by Wassily Kandinsky, Mark Rothko, Andy Warhol, and Anselm Kiefer are spiritual in nature. These works reveal their own spirituality, which often has no connection to official religions. Wessel Stoker demonstrates that these artists communicate religious insights through images and shows how they depict the relationship between heaven and earth, between this world and a transcendent reality, thus clearly drawing the contours of the spirituality these works evince. | Aggiungi al Carrello |

Culture and Transcendence
| Edizione: | Peeters, 2012 | | Collana: | Studies in Philosophical Theology |

Indicativamente procurabile in 20-25 giorni lavorativi | | Info disponibilità | Rifornimento in corso | | Prezzo di acquisto | € 59,80 | | Descrizione | The spectrum of religious experience and spirituality in contemporary
postmodern, postsecular and religiously pluralized Western culture is
extremely broad. Is it possible to trace the development, the shifts,
breaches and patterns of religious and spiritual transcendence in this
deeply diversified context? In this volume, a heuristic model of four
types of transcendence is proposed and discussed. The four types are
immanent transcendence, radical transcendence, radical immanence and
transcendence as alterity. Of each type two examples from contemporary
cultural discourses, ranging from theology and philosophy to popular
culture are presented and the viability of the model as such is
critically assessed. The pairs of examples show how different kinds of
content are given to the same type. By illuminating this dialectic
between formal categories of notions of transcendence and their specific
content in various areas of culture, the book can aid further
exploration of the preconditions, possibilities, difficulties and
limitations of relating to and expressing (a) sense(s) of transcendence
within a postmodern world. | Aggiungi al Carrello |

Is the Quest for Meaning the Quest for God? The Religious Ascription of Meaning in Relation to the Secular Ascription of Meaning: A Theological Study
| Edizione: | Brill, 1996 | | Collana: | Currents of Encounter |
Tempi di rifornimento |
Indicativamente procurabile in 15-20 giorni lavorativi | | Info disponibilità | Rifornimento in corso | | Prezzo di acquisto | € 67,00 | | Descrizione | Traditionally, religion was the supplier of meaning. It is often said that the quest for meaning is at bottom a quest for God, a quest that can only find an adequate answer in religion. But then what is the alternative for those who reject religion? Emptiness and meaninglessness, as Nietzsche succinctly formulated it: We have killed God. Are we not straying as through an infinite nothing? In the meantime, non-believers have found a solution for the crisis in meaning. People are not (usually) nihilists but live their lives and consider them to be meaningful without religion. This study is concerned with determining once again the place of the ascription of meaning from the perspective of the Christian faith in its relation to the non-religious ascription of meaning. For this purpose an analysis is given of contemporary theological and philosophical views of the problem of meaning. The crisis of meaning as it has arisen in Nietzsche and the theatre of the absurd is examined. Stoker also discusses contemporary forms of the ascription of meaning without religion such as self-actualization and functional rationality as sources of meaning. Stoker rejects an 'apologetics of need'. He posits that the Christian faith does not have an exclusive right to the ascription of meaning, but this obtains also for secular forms of the ascription of meaning such as humanism. Is God then the 'ultimate concern' of each person? From the perspective of the Christian faith, yes, but this does not mean that the non-religious ascription of meaning as such must be viewed negatively. Stoker illustrates how the religious and the non-religious ascriptions of meaning are similar and how they differ. Both are intended to be the source of meaning for human questions of life and death. With respect to their differences the author demonstrates that the ascription of meaning from the perspective of the Christian faith does not entail a disqualification of a non-religious worldview but is intended to make people more human. | Aggiungi al Carrello |
