Infos

Thought, rather than being mere transcendence of the immediate (or "e;empirical"e;), is contemplation's initial emergence from finite scientific understanding towards philosophic truth, sophia (Hegel on atomism's history). We move from finite paradox to infinite contradiction, to "e;the bewitchment of intelligence by language"e; (Wittgenstein). The contradiction is a real fault of language and its discursive reasoning. Hegel denies partes extra partes. This book identifies absolute idealism as "e;the true realism"e;, only expressible in apparent contradiction, unless we consider certain discrete reductions of such absolute spirituality to mundane vacuity, tackling instead the elusive theme of direct divine grace in human destiny. In the book, faith's credentials as our link to the infinite are considered. It provides a unique analogy which likens faith to absolute knowledge, finite to infinite, mediating the "e;development of doctrine"e; through ignorance.
