4.0 out of 5 stars
Two concepts for the price of one (book),
By Richard Horobin (Pitlochry, Scotland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mysticism After Modernity (Religion and Spirituality in the Modern World) (Paperback)
This book has helped me better grasp the notions of 'modernity' and 'postmodernity. That we are at a hinge of history. Here we go, over the waterfall! Wheeeeeee! say Cupitt. Here looked at from a religious viewpoint. Stimulating. Dont agree with such postmodernist notions as "language goes all the way down" (but what a phrase) - hasnt he heard of emotion? Or preconscious processing? Profoundly hopeful (which of course I resent, but hey...). Informative. Challanging - the view that 'mysticism' is a late nineteenth century invention is MARVELLOUS. Well argued (and thats always fun). Readable - I DASHED through it. Then went back over.
