Description
God in the Enlightenment by William J. Bulman and Robert G. Ingram explores a pivotal moment in history when the notion that the Enlightenment was solely a secularist movement began to be questioned. Historians have long debated the accuracy of this portrayal, but recent scholarship has shed new light on the complex relationships between philosophy, church, and state during the 18th century. Bulman and Ingram bring together expert perspectives from history, theology, and literature to demonstrate that God not only survived the Enlightenment but thrived within it. The authors examine the intellectual crisis of the late 17th and early 18th centuries, tracing the development of ideas from Spinoza to Kant and exploring their connections with globalisation. This nuanced understanding offers a fresh perspective on the age of lights.
