Recenzii

“As an introductory insight into the world of mysticism and death, this book would well suit readers unfamiliar to the topic; being able to readily choose a direction of their interest. However, even a reader familiar with the area may be able to gain greater understanding, primarily by re-balancing their existing knowledge within a larger context, and thereby helping to shake off any academic astigmatisms or tunnel-vision which can sometimes develop with time.” (Vladimir Dubaj, Australian Journal of Parapsychology, Vol. 17, December, 2017)

“Death, Dying, and Mysticism offers a rich, multi-disciplinary perspective on physical death as a time of transformation, and examines the mystical loss of ego mentioned in various religious narratives on dying. … A number of articles in this book explore death, grief, spiritual experience, and identity for various key thinkers, artists, and composers.” (Dr. Lise Vail, RR Reading Religion, readingreligion.org, September, 2016)

“The book is an interesting and diverse collection of essays analyzing the relationship of mysticism and death in a variety of disciplines. ... presents a challenge to our contemporary hermeneutic of interpreting both mysticism and death as one dimensional and universal. Cattoi and Moreman’s edited collection reminds the reader that the numinous can be encountered in many different shapes and forms—even, and especially, in encounters with dying and death.” (Candi K. Cann, Omega, Vol. 73 (2), 2016)
