Seller: BOOKHOME SYDNEY, Annandale Sydney, NSW, Australia
Paperback octavo, very good plus condition. 426 pp. An exceptional collection of writings by leading scholars demonstrating how religion and the language of rhetoric can illuminate each other. Together these writings shed light on religion as a human quest, and rhetoric as the origin and sustainer of that quest. They show that when pursued with intelligence and sensitivity, rhetorical approaches to religion are capable of revitalizing both language and experience. Rhetorical figures, for example, constitute forms of language that say what cannot be said in any other way, and that move individuals toward religious truths that cannot be known in any other way. Brings into focus crucial issues in several fields, including philosophy, psychology, history, and art. Seller Inventory # 12021
