Faith, Hope, and Love The Theological Virtues and Their Opposites

Faith, Hope, and Love: The Theological Virtues and Their Opposites
English | 2022 | ISBN: 3030950611 | 436 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 3 MB
These essays consider the three traditional theological virtues―faith, hope, and love―alongside their opposites―doubt, despair, and hate, from a scholarly perspective. The volume includes contributions not just from philosophers of religion, but also from psychologists, sociologists, and film and literature scholars, to paint a complex and nuanced picture of these virtues, both of how we might understand them, and how we can hope to embody them ourselves. While these virtues make up a core part of the Christian tradition, the chapters here go far and wide in search of different cultural conceptions of these universal human concerns. Inquiries are made into these virtues within Hindu, Buddhist, Jewish, and Islamic thought, alongside philosophers including Aristotle, Hegel, Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, Levinas, and Murdoch. The resulting tapestry is often beautiful, sometimes horrific, but always thoroughly human. This text appeals to students and researchers working in these fields.
