A truly brilliant collection of philosophical essays about just about any concerns and trends of 20th culture, morality, aestheticism in a traditional European manner. It it will introduce to a world of thinkers who are not acknowledged in America, although they are widely read and discussed in Europe. Peruse the table of contents and you will certainly find at least one area that is of particular interest to you.

Format: Paperback
The main thesis of this book is that the historical scheme at the base of both the Modernist and the Antimodernist camp is wrong. According to this explanation History develops in an invevitable fashion from Pagan Antiquity to the Medieval Age of Faith, then to the Reanaissance of the Human Autonomy of Man, to the Modernity of its realisation in the Enlightenment, seen positively by the Modernists, and negatively by the Anti-Modernists. Both the Modernist (and its AntiModernist interface), interpretation of the development of History, are wrong. Wrong because no such inevitability exists in any truly Biblical understanding of History which is, in reality, both Providential and Covenantal. Both these views of Modernity (favourable and unfavourable to it), premiss a History autonomous of Divine Providence. Both are rationalist and without Covenantal underpinnings.

Del Noce posits a view that history is not monolithic but includes two gates, two ways, two directions : one narrow, one broad ; one leading to the Kingdom of God ; the other to the reign of the Dragon, this in the great Apocalyptic city of Babyon which represents the total colllusion of the two Beasts, as represented both in the Beasts of Apocalypse 13 and in the Babylon of chapters 17 and 18. So history, open to the covenant, is not enclosed in the historical fatality of Modernism or of Anti-Modernism, Modernity being the overarching myth of our present anti-civilisation. History contains both the good grain and the tares of the famous parable of the tares (Matthew 13).

This radical critique of the myth of Modernity is very liberating for the Christian who, from the covenantal perspective of Providential History, sees a constant opening for those who fear God, love Jesus-Christ and seek to obey his commandments, for victorious action in every domain in favour of the development of Christ's Kingdom.

A very useful book indeed.
