À propos de cet audio
The Human Quest for Meaning is a comprehensive reference book that sounds like a story. It traces the human quest for meaning from the origin of religion down to postmodernism.
Western culture has had the greatest influence on the world today. So, this treatise dedicates a significant amount of its material covering the history of Christian theology from its beginning as a Jewish cult through a period of internal conflict to become the imperial church. It covers Augustine’s influence, the split between the Eastern Orthodox and Roman Catholic churches and the medieval scholastic period. This book reviews the rise of the papacy and the power struggle between the popes, councils and the nobility. It addresses early reformers such as Wyclif, Hus, and Erasmus, the renaissance, the Protestant reformation, and the development of its numerous denominations.
It provides an overview of the major world religions including: Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism, Taoism, Judaism, Islam, and the Bahá’í Faith. It also looks at how other thinkers such as Confucius, Plato, Aristotle, Descartes, Kant, Marx, Nietzsche, and postmodern philosophers have changed the world.
