Reconsidering Transcendence Between Presence and Absence, Editor: John Anthony Berry

Description

By engaging deeply with the theme of transcendence, this book invites readers to reflect on its profound implications for human dignity, spiritual integrity, and ethical responsibility, fostering a meaningful dialogue about the nature of our moral and existential lives. Transcendence signifies an openness to the absolute, finds its most profound expression in the concept of love, and represents an ongoing journey that profoundly shapes one’s human existence.
