Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889-1951) made profound contributions to many
areas of philosophy and cultural understanding, and his thought and
methods have inspired numerous inquirers into the forms of our
religious life. D. Z. Phillips (1934-2006) pioneered the
application of Wittgenstein-influenced approaches to the philosophy
of religion, and emphasized the contemplative, non-dogmatic nature
of the philosophical task. In "Contemplating Religious Forms of
Life," Mikel Burley elucidates and critically examines the work of
these two philosophers in relation to various aspects of religion,
including ritual, mystical experience, faith and reason, realism
and non-realism, conceptions of eternal life, and the use of
literature as a resource for the contemplation of religious and
non-religious beliefs. The book will be of significant value to
academics, students and general readers interested in philosophy,
religious studies, theology, and the interrelations between these
disciplines.
