Bernard Hamon

A travers cet essai critique, Bernard Hamon s'appuie sur les textes de George Sand pour montrer que sa pensée religieuse ne peut entrer "dans le moule de religions existantes". Spiritualiste et humaniste, elle est "empreinte d'une religiosité cosmique en dehors de toute confession". "Je suis toujours croyante, tout à fait croyante en Dieu. La vie éternelle. Le mal un jour vaincu par la science. La science éclairée par l'amour. Mais les symboles, les figures, les dieux humains ? Bonjour ! J'ai dépassé tout cela. Je suis entrée dans l'univers, et voilà." Extrait de Journal intime.

Robert Wuthnow

In this book, well-known author Robert Wuthnow considers three aspects of the relationship between Christianity and civil society: whether civil society is in jeopardy and what effects Christianity's declining influence has on civil society; whether Christians can be civil in the face of conflicts that have arisen among religious groups in the public arena and the so-called culture wars that many in the media have been discussing; and growing multiculturalism in the. United States, how Christians are responding to this new diversity, and how Christianity can regain a critical voice for itself in these debates.

Mark E. Blum

Continuity, quantum, continuum, and dialectic are foundational logics of Western historical thought. The historiographical method to discern them is a critique of historical reason. I demonstrate through ‘stylistics’ how the inner temporal experience of the person shapes both judgment and historical action. My work augments the epistemology of Immanuel Kant, Wilhelm Dilthey, and Edmund Husserl. Studies of significant persons from Shakespeare through the Framers of the American Constitution, as well as contemporary adolescents, illustrate the intergenerational presence of these historical logics. Courses in historical method, phenomenological philosophy, cognitive psychology, linguistics, and literary theory can benefit from my findings and approach.
