Hardback. Condition: New. How should we explain differences in religious belief and practice? Philippe Borgeaud's ambitious intellectual history tells the story of how reflection on religious phenomena emerged, throughout the centuries, in European consciousness and scholarship. Christianity in particular, as Borgeaud shows, long wrestled with how to understand polytheistic cultures versus its own belief in a single omnipotent God. The Church Fathers, the author argues, sought to inherit the core of Graeco-Roman culture while rejecting its deities and religious practices; and patristic ideas were later adopted when Europeans travelling and colonising the world encountered ever more varied polytheistic traditions. At times detached, at times enchanted, these travellers' reflections provided the basis for the modern study of 'religions', and have since conditioned the mindset of anyone brought up in a European culture. The book concludes by arguing for the importance of liberation from these assumptions and instead considering religion as a form of 'play'.…

Condition: COME NUOVO. La Librairie du XXi Siecle cm.14x22,5, pp.306, brossura. La Librairie du XXi Siecle. Collection dirigée par Maurice Olender. La question de l'identité religieuse dans son rapport à la laïcité est plus actuelle que jamais. Ainsi, que signifient ce désir d'introduire le mot «religion» dans le préambule de la future Constitution européenne ou, au contraire, cette réticence à y faire une quelconque allusion ? La multiplication des sectes, la forte politisation actuelle des religions, le «retour» du religieux, proclamé dans le monde des organisations internationales et des seigneurs de la guerre, invitent à repenser certains concepts. D'où l'importance de saisir l'origine de notre notion de «religion», ce qu'elle recouvre. A l'heure où l'on veut promouvoir l'histoire des religions dans l'enseignement, Philippe Borgeaud propose un livre fondamental. Entre Athènes, Rome et Jérusalem, rien ne vaut un détour par les territoires lointains, mais fondateurs, où apparaissent les premières formulations de nos évidences. Ce qui s'impose alors - doit-on s'en étonner ? -, c'est le caractère pluriel et polémique du mot «religion», un objet qui n'existe pas de toute éternité, que l'on ne cesse de construire et de reconstruire.…
