Mark Wynn

Gebundenes Buch

Emotional Experience and Religious Understanding

Beschreibung

Wynn argues that the landscape of philosophical theology looks rather different from the perspective of a re-conceived theory of emotion. He uses this perspective to forge a distinctive approach to a range of established topics in philosophy of religion, and to examine the connection of 'feeling' to doctrine and tradition.

Rezensionen

'This is a brave, interesting and thought-provoking book which shows Mark Wynn's authorial voice to be possessed of a sensitive moral sensibility. ... I read the book with much gratitude for its having been written, and I am sure that many others will do so too. ... can be recommended to all who are concerned with the epistemology of the religious life, as well as to those who sense a lack in much contemporary philosophy of religion of a properly human sense of why religion might matter in the first place.'
