In his most recent work, the contemporary philosopher Roger Scruton
has turned his attention to religion. Although a religious
sensibility ties together his astonishingly prodigious and dynamic
output as a philosopher, poet and composer, his recent exploration
of religious and theological themes from a philosophical point of
view has excited a fresh response from scholars. This collection of
writings addresses Scruton's challenging and subtle philosophy of
religion for the first time. The volume includes contributions from
those who specialize in the philosophy of religion, the history of
thought and culture, aesthetics, and church history. The collection
is introduced by Mark Dooley, author of two books on Scruton, and
includes a response to the writings from Scruton himself in which
he develops his idea of the sacred and the erotic and defends the
integrity of his work as an attempt to give a sense of the
Lebenswelt (or 'lifeworld'): how humans experience the world. He
argues that religion emerges from that experience and transforms us
from beings bound by causal necessity into persons who acknowledge
freedom, obligation and right. A unique and fascinating collection
of writings that sheds light on this hitherto unexplored aspect of
Roger Scruton's philosophy.
