Critique of Religion and Philosophy - Walter A. Kaufmann

Descriere Critique of Religion and Philosophy - Walter A. Kaufmann

\n \nFrom one of the major figures of twentieth-century intellectual life, an incisive critique of faith and reason in the secular age \n \nOriginally published in 1958, Critique of Religion and Philosophy is Walter Kaufmann's luminous appraisal of the orthodoxies of his day. Although he was a philosopher first and foremost, Kaufmann was not immune to the wellsprings from which religion originates, considering it to be among the most vital and radical expressions of the human intellect. In this panoramic and uniquely personal book, he tests the limits of faith and reason in our secular age. Kaufmann discusses topics ranging from positivism and existentialism to language, scripture, and Eros, and shares his views on thinkers such as Plato, Aquinas, Kant, Bultmann, Niebuhr, and Freud. Challenging, playful, and disarmingly honest, Critique of Religion and Philosophy is as bold and provocative as when it was first published.\n
