What can transcendence mean for us? We live in a world in which
there are many conceptions of transcendence. Some philosophers say
that they all point, in their way, to a transcendent realm, without
which death and life's sorrows have the last word, while their
opponents argue that since this realm is an illusion, we must use
our own resources to meet life's trials. Others argue that moral
and religious concepts of transcendence are obscured by
philosophical notions of transcendence, and must be rescued from
them. These conflicting views on a central issue in our culture are
brought into sharp relief in the present collection.
