Description
Saving the Appearances: A Study in Idolatry explores the relationship between our perceptions of the world and the world itself. Barfield examines the evolution of human consciousness, tracing its development from early human thought to modern times, drawing on a range of disciplines including anthropology, physics, theology, and linguistics.
Through this journey, Barfield sheds light on the nature of God, nature, and the human experience, offering a nuanced understanding of the complex interplay between these concepts.
This thought-provoking work is a valuable contribution to the fields of philosophy, history, and spirituality, making it a compelling read for anyone interested in exploring the depths of human thought and understanding.
