Beschreibungen
';Phenomenal... A must read for us who desire to topple the dictatorship of relativism and culture of death and replace it with the only alternative' (The Imaginative Conservative). Especially concerned with the public nature of religion, historian Glenn W. Olsenauthor of Christian Marriage: A Historical Study and On the Road to Emmaus: The Catholic Dialogue with American and Modernitysets forth an exhaustively researched and persuasive account of how religion has been reshaped in the modern period. The Turn to Transcendence traces both the loss of transcendence and attempts to recover it while making its own proposals. Neither reactionary nor modernist, it questions howunder conditions of modern lifesome form of the sacred and some form of the secular might both flourish at the same time. But it also provides a warning that a religion unable to maintain itself with its own overt architecture, language, and calendars against an enveloping secular culture is destined for oblivion. ';Glenn Olsen's book could hardly be more pivotal or insightful. Confronting the growing amnesia regarding culture's religious origin and transcendent purpose, Olsen proves both a masterful cartographer of modernity and a visionary of a culture that encourages and enables us to seek beyond ourselves.' Carl A.Anderson, Supreme Knight of the Knights of Columbus ';A brilliant book. It rests on an amazing amount of scholarship that is wide-ranging in history, literature, art, science, music, theology, and philosophy.' James Hitchcock, professor of history, St. Louis University
