Book excerpt: Aujourd’hui, les religions nous inquiètent ou nous terrorisent. Elles sont pourtant appelées, soutient Gustave de Molinari dans ce livre publié en 1892, à jouer un rôle déterminant dans nos sociétés modernes. À partir des enseignements de la science économique, l’auteur montre que la religion, besoin naturel de l’homme, fut dans l’histoire un facteur d’ordre et de paix, et qu’elle a entraîné à sa suite plus d’avantages que de maux. En insistant sur l’importance de la puissance morale de l’homme pour le développement de la civilisation, il conclut sur l’utilité du soutien religieux, si l’humanité entend vivre dans la paix et la prospérité.

Download or read book The Sacred and the Profane written by Mircea Eliade and published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. This book was released on 1959 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Famed historian of religion Mircea Eliade observes that even moderns who proclaim themselves residents of a completely profane world are still unconsciously nourished by the memory of the sacred. Eliade traces manifestations of the sacred from primitive to modern times in terms of space, time, nature, and the cosmos. In doing so he shows how the total human experience of the religious man compares with that of the nonreligious. This book serves as an excellent introduction to the history of religion, but its perspective also emcompasses philosophical anthropology, phenomenology, and psychology. It will appeal to anyone seeking to discover the potential dimensions of human existence. -- P. [4] of cover.
Download or read book An Unnatural History of Religions written by Leonardo Ambasciano and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-12-27 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Unnatural History of Religions examines the origins, development, and critical issues concerning the history of religion and its relationship with science. The book explores the ideological biases, logical fallacies, and unwarranted beliefs that surround the scientific foundations (or lack thereof) in the academic discipline of the history of religions, positioning them in today's 'post-truth' culture. Leonardo Ambasciano provides the necessary critical background to evaluate the most important theories and working concepts dedicated to the explanation of the historical developments of religion. He covers the most important topics and paradigm shifts in the field, such as phenomenology, postmodernism, and cognitive science. These are taken into consideration chronologically, each time with case studies on topics such as shamanism, gender biases, ethnocentrism, and biological evolution. Ambasciano argues that the roots of post-truth may be deep in human biases, but that historical justifications change each time, resulting in different combinations. The surprising rise of once-fringe beliefs, such as conspiracy theories, pseudoscientific claims, and so-called scientific creationism, demonstrates the alarming influence that post-truth ideas may exert on both politics and society. Recognising them before they spread anew may be the first step towards a scientifically renewed study of religion.
Download or read book Animal et religion written by Sylvie Peperstraete and published by Editions de l'Université de Bruxelles. This book was released on 2019-05-13 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: S’il est un domaine où l’animal est fort présent, c’est bien celui des religions ! Réel ou fabuleux, il se prête fort bien aux élaborations symboliques. L’animal, qu’il soit peint, sculpté, évoqué dans les sources écrites ou les traditions orales, ou encore qu’il soit présent parmi les vestiges archéologiques, semble, de tout temps et en tout lieu, avoir été en rapport avec l’être humain. Cette étude, réalisée dans une perspective diachronique et comparatiste, montre que les rapports de l’animal avec les religions sont d’une richesse et d’une diversité extraordinaires. EXTRAIT Tout aussi intéressante, à cet égard, est la tradition des bestiaires médiévaux, ces traités moralisés sur les propriétés des animaux. Tous dérivent, plus ou moins directement, d’un ouvrage composé en grec à Alexandrie au IIe siècle de notre ère, le Physiologus. L’auteur anonyme de ce livre a associé à chaque animal une signification chrétienne. Sont ainsi décrits, en 48 brefs chapitres, des animaux, parfois fabuleux (comme la licorne, le phénix et la sirène) mais aussi plus réalistes : quadrupèdes, serpents, oiseaux,... Par son entremise, les monstres de l’Orient et de l’Antiquité gréco-romaine sont entrés dans l’imaginaire médiéval. D’autres sources importantes de ces bestiaires médiévaux sont l’Histoire naturelle de Pline et les Étymologies d’Isidore de Séville. À la fin du XVIe siècle encore, au Mexique, le livre XI de l’Histoire générale des choses de la Nouvelle Espagne de Bernardino de Sahagún, que Bertrand Lobjois évoque dans sa contribution, est bâti sur le modèle de ces auteurs anciens. Sollicitant l’aide d’informateurs indigènes, le missionnaire franciscain y détaille les différents animaux présents au Mexique, les espèces réelles mêlées aux créatures imaginaires telles que le serpent à plumes. Les auteurs arabes du Moyen Âge ne sont pas en reste puisque, comme le montre Jean-Charles Ducène, le thème de l’animal se retrouve dans plusieurs domaines des savoirs de l’époque. Il apparaît notamment dans la littérature morale, pour servir d’expédient à l’homme ou pour aborder une question philosophique par les yeux d’un animal.
Download or read book Religion Reason and Nature in Early Modern Europe written by R. Crocker and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2001-10-31 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a variety of perspectives, the essays presented here explore the profound interdependence of natural philosophy and rational religion in the `long seventeenth century' that begins with the burning of Bruno in 1600 and ends with the Enlightenment in the early Eighteenth century. From the writings of Grotius on natural law and natural religion, and the speculative, libertin novels of Cyrano de Bergerac, to the better-known works of Descartes, Malebranche, Cudworth, Leibniz, Boyle, Spinoza, Newton, and Locke, an increasing emphasis was placed on the rational relationship between religious doctrine, natural law, and a personal divine providence. While evidence for this intrinsic relationship was to be located in different places - in the ideas already present in the mind, in the observations and experiments of the natural philosophers, and even in the history, present experience, and prophesied future of mankind - the result enabled and shaped the broader intellectual and scientific discourses of the Enlightenment.
