Beyond Secular Faith: Philosophy, Economics, Politics, and Literature

Attempts to reach an understanding of how to live a Christian life in the contemporary context have never been more necessary. This is the aim of the International Symposium: Beyond Secular Faith, an annual conference held in Granada, Spain. This volume represents the fruits of over seven years of scholarship. The title Beyond Secular Faith suggests an interest in (re)discovering and reflectively elaborating ways to overcome the limits imposed by the dominant contemporary culture. Szalay is convinced that only a faith liberated from the conceptual restrictions and reductions (put forward by secular philosophy and theology) and centered radically on Christ can flourish in the dimension that is proper to faith; that is, in all spheres of human life. Featuring contributions from internationally recognized philosophers and theologians such as Tracey Rowland, Jaros_aw Jagiello, Rocco Buttiglione, Alison Milbank, Massimo Borghesi, John Milbank, and others, this title explores a diversity of questions from this common perspective: the light of revelation illuminates how Christians should live in the modern world, leading to a new beginning.
