Book Synopsis A Christian Perspective of Postmodern Existentialism by : John D. Carter
Download or read book A Christian Perspective of Postmodern Existentialism written by John D. Carter and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2021-06-08 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Western Humanism originating in classical Greek philosophy--where the capacity of human reason became the dominant means for perceiving a worldview based in reality--reigned in Western philosophy until the onset of Postmodern Existentialism in the mid-twentieth century. Plato's Theory of Forms prepared the Western gentile mind to accept the rationality of a transcendent ultimate reality, and in so doing steered the gentile mind from its bent to pantheistic deities. The apostle Paul boldly proclaimed to the Athenians that their "unknown god" was indeed the transcendent God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Christianity prevailed in Western philosophy until the Enlightenment--which was the result of the unprecedented success of the scientific method--began to turn the Western mind to the existentialistic idea of the relativity of moral truth.

Download or read book To Be or Not To Be written by David Moffett-Moore and published by Energion Publications. This book was released on 2017-11-27 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Existentialism is a philosophical school of thought unique in being based on feeling and experience rather than on the traditional foundations of philosophy. Many of its proponents have been atheists or can be considered opponents of religion. With this history, can there be such a thing as a Christian existentialism? Dr. David Moffett-Moore believes there can be. In this book he outlines the basics of existentialist thought and a path to a Christian existentialist viewpoint.
Book Synopsis Existentialism and Christian Zen by : A William McVey
Download or read book Existentialism and Christian Zen written by A William McVey and published by John Hunt Publishing. This book was released on 2012-10-26 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is a small book written for readers without an in depth background in philosophy, especially existentialism. It is an examinnation of the interface between Christian meditation and Zen Buddhism. It is contextual, and as of yet I have not included the meditation workshop book that I use when I am giving workshops on Christian Zen meditation. Presently, it is really in the format of an in depth essay. The style is siminlar to one of your publications that had led me to your site i.e Emotion and Psyche, Marc Jackson.I have presented this workshop also on college campuses in the midwest, and it was received well. It helps greatly clarify the nature o af promising and practical dialogue between Christian existentialism and the practice of Zen.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book seeks to examine the mutual interplay between existentialism and Christian belief as seen through the work of three existentialist thinkers who were also committed Christians - a Spaniard (Miguel de Unamuno), a Russian (Nikolai Berdyaev), and a Frenchman (Gabriel Marcel).

Book Synopsis Existential Theology by : Hue Woodson
Download or read book Existential Theology written by Hue Woodson and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2020-09-29 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Existential Theology: An Introduction offers a formalized and comprehensive examination of the field of existential theology, in order to distinguish it as a unique field of study and view it as a measured synthesis of the concerns of Christian existentialism, Christian humanism, and Christian philosophy with the preoccupations of proper existentialism and a series of unfolding themes from Augustine to Kierkegaard. To do this, Existential Theology attends to the field through the exploration of genres: the European traditions in French, Russian, and German schools of thought, counter-traditions in liberation, feminist, and womanist approaches, and postmodern traditions located in anthropological, political, and ethical approaches. While the cultural contexts inform how each of the selected philosopher-theologians present genres of “existential theology,” other unique genres are examined in theoretical and philosophical contexts, particularly through a selected set of theologians, philosophers, thinkers, and theorists that are not generally categorized theologically. By assessing existential theology through how it manifests itself in “genres,” this book brings together lesser-known figures, well-known thinkers, and figures that are not generally viewed as “existential theologians” to form a focused understanding of the question of the meaning of “existential theology” and what “existential theology” looks like in its varying forms.

Book Synopsis Christianity and the Existentialists by : Carl Michalson
Download or read book Christianity and the Existentialists written by Carl Michalson and published by . This book was released on 1956 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The chapters included in this volume were delivered in their original form as public lectures in Craig Chapel of Drew University during the academic year 1953-54. They comprise the fifteenth series of lectures to Christian Biography on a foundation established by President and Mrs. Ezra Squier Tipple. The selection of the participants in the lectureship followed easily upon the choice of the subject. The lecturers were assembled under a commission entitles "The Challenge of Christian Existentialism." The major motive in this title is clear. A cultural movement which is exercising so great an influence upon the reformulation of Christian thought deserves to be appraised."--Preface

Book Synopsis Situating Existentialism by : Jonathan Judaken
Download or read book Situating Existentialism written by Jonathan Judaken and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2012-06-05 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This anthology provides a history of the systemization and canonization of existentialism, a quintessentially antisystemic mode of thought. Situating existentialism within the history of ideas, it features new readings on the most influential works in the existential canon, exploring their formative contexts and the cultural dialogues of which they were a part. Emphasizing the multidisciplinary and global nature of existential arguments, the chosen texts relate to philosophy, religion, literature, theater, and culture and reflect European, Russian, Latin American, African, and American strains of thought. Readings are grouped into three thematic categories: national contexts, existentialism and religion, and transcultural migrations that explore the reception of existentialism. The volume explains how literary giants such as Dostoevsky and Tolstoy were incorporated into the existentialist fold and how inclusion into the canon recast the work of Kierkegaard and Nietzsche, and it describes the roles played by Jaspers and Heidegger in Germany and the Paris School of existentialism in France. Essays address not only frequently assigned works but also underappreciated discoveries, underscoring their vital relevance to contemporary critical debate. Designed to speak to a new generation's concerns, the collection deploys a diverse range of voices to interrogate the fundamental questions of the human condition.

Book Synopsis Muriel Spark, Existentialism and The Art of Death by : Cairns Craig
Download or read book Muriel Spark, Existentialism and The Art of Death written by Cairns Craig and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2019-02-20 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Proposes that Christian existentialism and, in particular, the work of Søren Kierkegaard, helped shape Spark's religious commitments and her artistic innovations. Because of the prominence, after the Second World War, of the atheistic existentialism of Jean-Paul Sartre, it is often forgotten that existentialism was originally a Christian philosophy, shaped by followers of Kierkegaard such as Karl Jaspers and Gabriel Marcel. The author traces in Spark's writings both the influence of Kierkegaard and of Spark's resistance to Sartre's co-option of existentialism to an atheistic agenda. Kierkegaard's analysis of the nature of the "aesthetic" as a false mode of existence that has to be transcended by the ethical and then by the religious provides a fundamental structure for Spark's satirical analyses of the failings of the modern world.
