Gabriel Marcel and American Philosophy

Angebote / Angebote:

The Religious Dimension of Experience: Gabriel Marcel and American Philosophy examines the philosophy of Gabriel Marcel and its relationship to key figures in classical American Philosophy, in particular Josiah Royce, William Ernest Hocking, and Henry Bugbee. Few scholars have taken sufficient note of the fact that Gabriel Marcel's thought is vitally informed by classical American philosophy. First, Marcel's essays on Royce offer a window into the soul of Marcel's recent philosophical development. The early Marcel was an idealist, his idealism stemmed from the omnipresent sense of a -broken world- - an experience of rent or tear within the tissue of experience similar to what John Dewey referred to as an - inward laceration of the spirit.- Second, Marcel's intuition concerning the primacy of intersubjective experience is a pellucid lens through which to examine Hocking's thought. Finally, Marcel's notion of l exigence ontologique is used to understand his relationship to Henry Bugbee. Marcel and Bugbee explore the contour of experience - the indigenous circuit of associations pertaining to the self as coesse. Through a reflexive act Marcel refers to as -ingatherdness, - the self undergoes increasing degrees of unification by undergoing -an act of faith made explicit only in a dialectical act of participation.- Marcel's relationship to these American philosophers is not coincidental, it is the philosophical expression of his Christian faith. Marcel's most important legacy is his commitment to unity of Christian philosophizing, a unity derived from both reason and revelation. Its diversity stems from the objective plurality of what is pursued as well as the subjective plurality of those who pursue it. Christian philosophizing seeks a truth that every Christian believes can never be untrue to itself.
