Synopsis
This book is about Divine Humanity, man's creative collaboration with God in the world. Nikolai Berdyaev's reflections on Divine Humanity lead him to outline a dramatic philosophy of destiny, a philosophy of existence which unfolds in time and passes over into eternity, into a state which is not death but transfiguration. He describes his method as existentially anthropocentric and spiritually religious; the dialectic of this book is a dialectic not of logic but of life, a living existential dialectic. He emphasizes that man must not only await a divine-human revelation, but work creatively to achieve one., The great Russian philosopher Nikolai Berdyaev (1874-1948) believed that the dawn of the twentieth century would bring an end to the old atheistic and positivistic worldview and the beginning of a new era of the spirit. His philosophy goes beyond mere rational conceptualization and tries to attain authentic life itself: the profound layers of existence in contact with the divine world. He directed all his efforts-philosophical as well as in his personal and public life-at replacing the kingdom of this world with the kingdom of God. According to him, we can all attempt this by tapping the divine creative powers that constitute our true nature. Our mission is to be collaborators with God in His continuing creation of the world. The Divine and the Human is about divine humanity, man's creative collaboration with God in the world. Nikolai Berdyaev's reflections on divine humanity lead him to outline a dramatic philosophy of destiny. It is a philosophy of existence that unfolds in time and passes over into eternity, into a state that is not death but transfiguration. He describes his method as existentially anthropocentric and spiritually religious. The dialectic of this book is not one of logic, but of life-a living existential dialectic. Berdyaev emphasizes that man must not simply wait upon a divine-human revelation, but must work creatively to achieve that revelation. "Nikolai Berdyaev's writings are always insightful, penetrating, passionate, committed-expressions of the whole person. They are as intensely alive now as when they were first written."-Richard Pevear, translator of War and Peace and The Brothers Karamazov "Nikolai Berdyaev's writings retain their freshness as vehicles for thinking not just about the future of Russia, but about the spiritual challenges facing the modern world."-Paul Vallier, author of Modern Russian Theology: Bukharev, Soloviev, Bulgakov "Nikolai Berdyaev is one of the few who have found the Christian answer, and yet do not cease to question with those whose lives are still torn asunder by disbelief, doubt, and sufferings; one of the few who dare to be, as thinkers, Christians and, as Christians, thinkers."-Evgeny Lampert, author of The Apocalypse of History Boris Jakim has translated and edited many books in the field of Russian religious thought. His translations include S. L. Frank's The Unknowable , Pavel Florensky's The Pillar and Ground of the Truth , Vladimir Solovyov's Lectures on Divine Humanity , and Sergius Bulgakov's The Bride of the Lamb .

    The backpack is great! Honestly it came in better condition than I expected, and it seems basically brand new, shipped very quickly as well. Also, I appreciate the seller for being transparent about a broken buckle they forgot to mention in the listing. They are a solid and honest seller, highly recommend.
