Description

From Ecclesiastes to Simone Weil: Varieties of Philosophical Spirituality reads major philosophers from the Western philosophical canon and beyond for the spirituality implicit in their metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, aesthetics, and logic.

Ernest Rubinstein revives for the modern reader the spiritual import of philosophy as an area of inquiry and study.

Spirituality is understood as a lived orientation towards the sacred.

The sacred is characterized as the source of all being and human wellbeing.

Philosophy is presented as an avenue of approach to the sacred alternative to the western religious traditions.

Philosophers treated include Plato, Descartes, Spinoza, Kant, Hegel, Kierkegaard, Emerson, William James, Bertrand Russell, and Simone Weil.
