Art, Desire, and God

Angebote / Angebote:

Bringing together thinkers from philosophy of religion, religious studies, music, art and film, and drawing on a wealth of phenomenological resources and methods, a team of renowned scholars provide new vantages on the question of how art is an expression of the human desire for God. In three interrelated parts, chapters employ phenomenological tools to propose new ways for speaking of the desire for God. Scholars first draw upon music, sculpture, film and painting to develop ways of expressing diverse philosophical and religious aspects characteristic of the aesthetic experience. The discussion then opens up to examine the mystical and the wounded aspects of embodied interface with God. The final part investigates the embodied aesthetic praxis in philosophy of religion and religious studies. With several contributions engaging with the embodied, aesthetic experience of underrepresented voices, Art, Desire and God offers constructive phenomenological bridges across divides of disciplines, aesthetic experiences and embodied actions.
