Description: |
The anthology focuses on the major classical pragmatist theories of religion. It is unique in pointing out pragmatist concepts of religious individualization as alternatives to the common secularization discourse and by stressing the compatibility of religious individualism with a positive concept of community. |
Synopsis: |
The Varieties of Transcendence traces American pragmatist thought on religion and its relevance for theorizing religion today. The volume establishes pragmatist concepts of religious individualization as powerful alternatives to the more common secularization discourse. In stressing the importance of Josiah Royce's work, it emphasizes religious individualism's compatibility with community. At the same time, by covering all of the major classical pragmatist theories of religion, it shows their kinship and common focus on the interrelation between the challenges of contingency and the semiotic significance of transcendence. |
