Metaphysical Personalism: An Analysis of Austin Farrer's Metaphysics of Theism
ISBN: 9780198263388 / Angielski / Twarda / 1995 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. How can we, or should we, talk about God? What concepts are involved in the concept of a Supreme Being? This book is about the search to reconcile modern metaphysics with traditional theism--focusing on the seminal work of Austin Farrer who was Warden of Keble College, Oxford until his death in 1968, and one of the most original and important philosophers of religion of this century. Conti traces the evolution of Ferrar's thought and shows why he preferred a "personalist" approach over Aristotle's metaphysics of "being."

""Published sermons present a special problem,"" writes John Austin Baker in his introduction to The End of Man. ""Sermons no one would think of printing have saved souls; sermons much admired by posterity may have achieved nothing . . .. What is rare indeed is that the text of a genuine sermon as actually delivered should satisfy the criteria of the literary form as well. To the tiny company of such preachers of genius Austin Farrer belongs."" The sermons collected in this volume demonstrate Farrers rare abilities as a writer and preacher.

Austin Farrer in his later years was striving for new depths of simplicity and insight.

In the foreword to this collection of essays, the noted British philosopher of religion John Hick aptly describes the style and tone to be found in Reflective Faith. ""Farrer asks . . . the right questions and thereby puts philosophical theology on the right road. This collection constitutes an introduction to Farrers thought such as many have wished for; and it will be important also for those who are concerned to study Farrers work as a whole."" And that work, Hick adds, ""is so far removed from the realm of unanalyzed slogans, vague metaphors, and all form of sloppiness and... Description:
