Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Blaise Pascal--a celebrated philosopher, mathematician, and inventor best known for his Pensees--is not often counted among the great Christian mystics. But the philosopher also composed two prayers, both of which display an unexpected spiritual depth.In this thoughtful study, author William C. Hackett presents new translations of, and commentary on, these two prayers of Pascal: the "Prayer Asking God for the Good Use of Illness," a series of deathbed reflections on faith amid suffering, and the mysterious "Memorial," an account of his mystical encounter with Christ on the "night of fire" in November 1654. Also included are Pope Francis's 2023 apostolic letter on Pascal, "The Grandeur and Misery of Man," and a series of reflections on Pascal's complex relationship with the Jansenism of seventeenth-century France.Spanning the depths of anguish and the height of exaltation, Pascal's Prayers offers religious and nonreligious readers alike stark insight into the human condition--and a glimpse into the throbbing heart of what it means to live and die a Christian.

Paperback. Condizione: New. William C. Hackett provides a renewed reading of Christian theology by evaluating the role of anthropomorphism in shaping negative theology. Through this theological history, he addresses the fear of anthropomorphism that prompted early philosophers and theologians to adopt abstract understandings of God.Hackett charts the wide-ranging importance of anthropomorphism to theology through figures including Balthasar, Bultmann, Dionysius the Areopagite, and Cyril of Alexandria. He argues that anthropomorphism highlights the unique conceptual problem between divine presence and absence. By exploring the turn away from practical and embodied views of God in Scripture, this book focuses on anthropomorphic views of God in symbols, images, and narratives. Emphasising these forms promotes an intellectual vision of Christianity that challenges theoretical and conceptual abstraction. Anthropomorphism in Christian Theology further traces the nuances between human and angelic intellect, modern philosophy and theology, negative theology and the concept of transcendence.…
