Description:This collection of studies has come to be in the wake of a Budapest workshop on a short text entitled Religio academici, written by Károly ("Karl") Kerényi, perhaps the greatest Hungarian classical philologist ever. Kerényi's brilliant paper reflects on how a student of antiquity has to relate to ancient religious phenomena he or she does not take for granted but has deep respect for. The discussion takes Kerényi toward a memorable analysis of what religion essentially is and how it relates to demonstrable philosophical knowledge. Following an English translation of his text, the other contributions to the present volume come to grips with questions concerning the relationship of reason and faith, knowledge and religion, philosophy and theology. Many of them also tackle different forms of scepticism, and explore their reasonability. Covering a wide chronological spectrum from classical antiquity to modernity, they point to the actuality of Kerényi's thought, and carry on his seminal investigations in several different directions.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
