Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Leichte Rillen / Abschürfungen / Risse / Knicke. This volume features significant unpublished writings by Eric Voegelin from the early 1960s to the late 1970s, complementing his published works following the first three volumes of Order and History. It includes five texts: "What Is History?", "Anxiety and Reason," "The Eclipse of Reality," "The Moving Soul," and "The Beginning and the Beyond." The introduction by Thomas A. Hollweck and Paul Caringella contextualizes these writings and highlights their role in the evolution of Voegelin's thought. In "What Is History?", Voegelin explores the development of a transcendent historical structure while rejecting the idea of universal meaning in history. "Anxiety and Reason" delves into his theory of historiogenesis, linking pragmatic history with legendary events tied to the cosmic order's beginnings. "The Eclipse of Reality" critiques modernity through analyses of thinkers like Sartre and Comte. "The Moving Soul," inspired by Henry Margenau, reformulates the relationship between physics and myth. The most significant essay, "The Beginning and the Beyond," reflects on the universality of experience shaped by the tension of existence under God. These previously unpublished writings allow scholars to trace the genesis of Voegelin's concerns during a transformative period in his intellectual journey.
