| Summary: | The category of “transcendence” is the constitutive dimension of the human being. However, a kind of theoretical frailty affects this category as the guiding principle of human existence and reality. This is witnessed by the digital revolution as the bearer of a form of transcendence shaped along the lines of an imaginary shift in the construction of the self. In this framework, the religious experience of transcendence and in particular the theo-logical interpretation developed by Christianity, displays a peculiar semantic, as it introduces a difference in the interpretation of humanness and criticizes any simplified understanding of reality. Religious experience and its reference to God represents a heretical perspective also for the interpretation of transcendence itself. Moreover, Christianity suggests that the meaning of transcendence lies in the prophetic relation with the history of the world. |
