Omschrijving
In this inviting book, philosopher Christopher Hamilton reflects on the nature of rapture and its crucial yet unacknowledged place in our lives.
lyrical and moving...
Rapture is a very pleasant, well-written, intelligent, and inspiring essay on the many meanings of human lives.
This book deserves to be widely read because it is so openly and concretely engaged in how we live our lives. It offers a rare combination of a brilliant mind devoted to the interests of people with a capacity to avoid pomposity and self-importance. Hamilton’s writing is crisp and clear, with exquisite taste and exemplary concision.
Compiling resources and experiences that bring the phenomenon of rapture into focus, Hamilton makes intriguing connections and models the thoughtfulness characteristic of philosophy at its best. There are numerous nuggets of insight that will open up new ways of thinking for readers. I finished the book wanting more.
Christopher Hamilton is professor of philosophy at King’s College London. His most recent book is Philosophy and Autobiography: Reflections on Truth, Self-Knowledge, and Knowledge of Others (2021).
