Recenzii
The Maturing of Monotheism is a welcome addition to Garth Hallett's distinguished life-long inquiry into religion, God, and now the monotheism so very essential to Jewish, Christian, and Islamic traditions. Ever the master of clear and instructive prose, Hallett ably investigates monotheism as an idea and category, even as he accounts for the objections and misunderstandings that abound. This book is a quiet treasure for those thinking seriously about "the one God" in today's complex religious environment.
This is a work that speaks boldly, in Wittgensteinian tones, about the ultimate veracity of monotheism. Hallett defends theistic traditions, especially Judaism, Christianity and Islam, that preserve and generate a vital, defensible, and truthful insight into the nature of reality. This is a significant contribution to the debate about religious pluralism and philosophy of religion.
Avoiding recourse to knock-down arguments and metaphysical obscurities, Hallett patiently pieces together a wealth of sources, classical and contemporary, to build a cumulative case for the intellectual coherence of theism. Measured and sensitive, with touches of humour and some telling examples, he shows that to philosophize about religion engages every aspect of our humanity, both the glance of love and the rich networks of nature, culture and history that keep human relationships free and alive.
