Hardcover. Zustand: New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: New. 1st Edition. NEW First Edition hardcover (Orig. 2012) First Printing, NEW handsomely-illustrated mylar-protected jacket w/ sharp NEW edges & corners, PRISTINE interior handsomely printed on EXCELLENT acid-free archival paper * 6.36" x 9.50" x 1.52", 1.00 kg, xii+552 (564) pp * ABOUT THE BOOK: The first classics in human history (the early works of literature, philosophy, & theology to which we have returned throughout the ages) appeared in the middle centuries of the first millennium BCE. The canonical texts of the Hebrew scriptures, the philosophical writings of Plato & Aristotle, the Analects of Confucius & the Daodejing, the Bhagavad Gita & the teachings of the Buddha, all of these works came down to us from the compressed period of history that Karl Jaspers memorably named the Axial Age. In "The Axial Age and Its Consequences", Robert Bellah & Hans Joas make the bold claim that intellectual sophistication itself was born worldwide during this critical time. Across Eurasia, a new self-reflective attitude toward human existence emerged, & w/ it an awakening to the concept of transcendence. From Axial Age thinkers we inherited a sense of the world as a place not just to experience but to investigate, envision, & alter through human thought & action. Bellah & Joas have assembled diverse scholars to guide us through this astonishing efflorescence of religious & philosophical creativity. As they explore the varieties of theorizing that arose during the period, they consider how these in turn led to Utopian visions that brought w/ them the possibility of both societal reform & repression. The roots of our continuing discourse on religion, secularization, inequality, education, & the environment all lie in Axial Age developments. Understanding this transitional era, the authors contend, is not just an academic project but a humanistic endeavor. * ABOUT THE EDITORS: ROBERT N. BELLAH was Elliott Professor of Sociology, Emeritus, at the University of California, Berkeley; HANS JOAS is Permanent Fellow at the Freiburg Institute for Advanced Studies & Professor of Sociology & Social Thought at the University of Chicago. * SHIPPING: MNEMOSYNE carefully wraps, labels & custom-packages this fine book for FREE domestic shipment via USPS MEDIA MAIL or USPS PRIORITY MAIL for an additional fee & via USPS FIRST CLASS INTERNATIONAL AIRMAIL to all international destinations at our posted rates. …
