The Mysticism of Ordinary Life: Theology, Philosophy, and Feminism

Autor Andrew Prevot
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 25 ian 2023
The Mysticism of Ordinary Life: Theology, Philosophy, and Feminism presents a new vision of Christian mystical theology. It offers critical interpretations of Catholic theologians, postmodern philosophers, and intersectional feminists who draw on mystical traditions to affirm ordinary life. It raises questions about normativity, gender, and race, while arguing that the everyday experience of the grace of divine union can be an empowering source of social transformation. It develops Christian teachings about the Word made flesh, the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, and the Christian spiritual life, while exploring the mystical significance of philosophical discourses about immanence, alterity, in-betweenness, nothingness, and embodiment. The discussion of Latino/a and Black sources in North America expands the Western mystical canon and opens new horizons for interdisciplinary dialogue. The volume challenges contemporary culture to recognize and draw inspiration from quotidian manifestations of the unknown God of incarnate love. It includes detailed studies of Grace Jantzen, Amy Hollywood, Catherine Keller, Karl Rahner, Adrienne von Speyr, Hans Urs von Balthasar, Michel Henry, Michel de Certeau, Luce Irigaray, Julia Kristeva, Gloría Anzaldúa, Ada María Isasi-Díaz, Alice Walker, M. Shawn Copeland, and more.

Recenzii

A complex study highlighting a topic that was rarely visited by recent scholars working on spirituality, Andrew Prevot's Mysticism of Ordinary Life,...is a contribution that should stimulate reading, analysis and debate for every researcher in the field of spirituality.
Certainly where the question of mystical theology is concerned, it is rather rare that a study as fundamental and profound as the one that Prevot now presents to the scientific community sees the light of day. The book therefore also belongs to the category of groundbreaking studies that not only presents a discipline - especially that of mystical theology - with new challenges, but in part already takes up these challenges itself and offers new perspectives to articulate the contemporary task of mystical theology.
