Toward Universal Religion
Author: Daniel R. ChandlerPublisher: Praeger
ISBN:
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
Using the 1893 and the 1993 World's Parliament of Religions as a focus for probing intercultural religious communication, this study describes more than a century's preoccupation with a provocative phenomenon called universal religion. It presents 12 enduringly significant speakers whose rhetorical effectiveness, combined with their concepts of universal religion, forge an intercultural synthesis combining Eastern religions and Western thought. This volume will interest scholars and students of both religion and rhetoric as well as the general public. It provides a deeper appreciation of such well-known communicators as Emerson and Thoreau, as well as an introduction to the significant contributions of thinkers such as Roy, Sen, Besant, Vivekananda, Tagore, Radhakrishnan, Gandhi, Jenkins Lloyd Jones, John Haynes Holmes, and Preston Bradley. The 1893 Parliament of The World's Religions and the 1993 World's Parliament of Religions are described by contemporary historians as watersheds in human history and turning points in humanity's spiritual progress. These parliaments are the two occasions when the world's religious leaders have gathered, and the events symbolize a growing preoccupation with an emerging universal religion evolving through interreligious communication. The 1893 Parliament is recognized for commencing interreligious dialogue and encouraging comparative religion; the 1993 Parliament is remembered for networking the worldwide religious and spiritual communities. This volume describes a little-known but highly important minority movement in which a comparatively few communicators in India and the United States have progessively synthesized Eastern religion and Western thought. The work examines these speakers and their speeches by placing this distinctive rhetorical discourse within their historical times and cultural contexts; specifying the concepts about universal religion proposed by each speaker; and indicating their contributions to an emerging and evolving religion that is universal.
Emerson and Universal Mind
Author: Richard G. GeldardPublisher:
ISBN: 9781936012640
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Geldard delves into what remains of Emerson's late Harvard Lectures to explore his core ideas on Mind, the Powers and Laws of Thought, Instinct and Inspiration, and Memory. In the process he presents Transcendentalism as an American development of the grand Neoplatonic vision. This one of a kind book concludes with "The Platonic Philosopher's Creed" by Thomas Taylor, the great Platonist whose translations and writings Emerson studied in depth.
