Person and Eros

Christos Yannaras

4.9/5 (11889 ratings)

Description:Person and Eros is probably one of the most important theological works to be published in Greece in the twentieth century. It addresses the question of how we encounter the ultimate reality we call God. Christos Yannaras argues that the intellectual ascent to first principles, which is characteristic of the Western philosophical tradition, is based on mistaken premises. We cannot encounter reality simply through conceptual knowledge. The knowledge of truth is not exhausted in its linguistic expression; it is acquired through immediate experience. Yannaras thus leads us, by way of the problem of knowledge, to a theological vision of union with the supreme mode of loving self-transcending and self-offering being, Norman Russell's lucid translation makes this vision accessible for the first time to English-speaking readers.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
