This work studies hope as a phenomenon that both reveals and
belongs to our status of being human. To understand that status, we
must understand what it means to hope, which profoundly surpasses
both psychological wish or desire and the "merely religious" belief
in salvation. The author looks at hope in all its concrete
manifestation: He examines works of art, some of which depict hope
in unflattering terms as delusional, while others see it as
dangerous and elusive; he examines false hope as that which
confuses intensity of desire for a specific boon as an actual cause
of the boon; he points to the metaphors of hope (light and darkness
as congruents of revealing/concealing; or the two forms of light
itself: illumination, or hope for, vs. radiation, or hope in (to
trust).
