Coup de coeur
Coup de coeur (Philosophy), by Ben
Encompassing Spinoza, George Eliot and Kierkegaard, Clare Carlisle's Transcendence for Beginners leads us from meditations on the art of biography to the larger question, What is a life? This wide-ranging philosophical essay is profound and readable, even to those of us without a background in philosophy. You may not come out of this book with the meaning of life itself, but you will have a sense of one direction in which to point your search.
Transcendence for Beginners marries a philosophy of religious life with a philosophy of the heart, and asserts Carlisle’s place as one of our most innovative thinkers.
