Description
Aspiring to Fullness in a Secular Age offers expert analyses of Charles Taylor's work, exploring his approaches to morality, politics, history, and philosophy. This collection of essays focuses on Taylor's insights regarding religious experience and its significance in understanding human fullness or fulfillment.
The contributors examine the function and meaning of religious accounts of transcendence in Taylor's philosophical project, as well as the limitations and possibilities inherent in his post-Nietzschean theism. They also consider the implications of Taylor's thought for theology and philosophy of religion.
