Description
Summary:"This is a work of transition from mere philosophy to a consideration of Christian religion, consisting of to main essays, The Christian sense and On assimilation, followed by a Reconsideration and global view and an Appendix: Clarifications and admonitions written in answer to an inquiry by a young scholar about method. The first essay explores the Christian sens of the spiritual life and how Christian religion, even as supernatural, can come under the purview of critical philosophy. The second essay examines the move from analogy to assimilation in speaking of the Christian life. Blondel tackles the question: How does the human spirit combine with the divine spirit in such a way that neither is lost in the process? This book is critical for understanding Blondel's thought"-- Book cover
