Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Although Flannery O'Connor is famously known as the "hillbilly Thomist," her love of the medieval did not take the form of a nostalgic refuge from the modern. O'Connor's vision of modernity relied heavily on three twentieth century thinkers who had a profound influence on her view of modernity: Romano Guardini, Etienne Gilson, and Gabriel Marcel. Ference walks us through four major problems Flannery O'Connor finds in the modern world: the self as center of existence, a disregard for mystery, a general distrust of the concrete, and the subordination of reason. Ference brings these four problems and three thinkers to bear on O'Connor's weird and wonderful first novel, Wise Blood, helping us to make sense of a strange book and, by extension, the estranged world we all now inhabit. "Father Ference (like O'Connor) excels at explaining complex ideas succinctly for non-specialists. You may not be familiar with some of the philosophers who shaped O'Connor's thinking, and whom Father Ference explores here; others-Aquinas, Descartes, Spinoza-will be more familiar. Regardless, you will come away from this work with a deeper understanding of the intellectual framework undergirding O'Connor's art and her protests against modernity. Ference's keen concluding analysis of her first novel, Wise Blood, makes clear that O'Connor's interest in philosophy was more than dilettantism: she melded it seamlessly into her creative vision."-Christopher Scalia Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Flannery O'Connor is one of the greatest writers of the twentieth century. Her novels and short stories--shockingly violent, absurdly comic, spiritually potent--continue to entertain, beguile, and transform readers of all backgrounds to this day. For many encountering them for the first time, O'Connor's stories of backwoods prophets and outcasts feel strangely nihilistic and dark. Others familiar with her letters and essays appreciate the deep Catholic understanding of sin and grace that animates them. In this new book, Fr. Damian Ference proposes a more precise lens for decoding Flannery O'Connor's narrative art, one that originates in O'Connor's own words about herself: Hillbilly Thomism. The author examines the various ways in which St. Thomas Aquinas and the philosophical tradition of Thomism shaped not only O'Connor's view of reality but also the stories she told to help us see and know it. Featuring an impressive array of biographical and literary evidence and extended analysis of her short stories "The River," "Parker's Back," and "The Displaced Person," Understanding the Hillbilly Thomist is an important look at the intersection of medieval philosophy and modern fiction in one of the most treasured artists of the American South.
