Seller's Description:
New. If only we could match in our recommendations here the lovely marriage of wide-ranging scholarship and personal engagement and conviction that Russell has achieved in this book...you would need no other special pleading to read it. Russell brings to bear a kaleidoscopic selection of biblical, patristic and medieval texts to convey the richness and diversity of Christian thinking about heaven. Jewish, Greek, Latin, and Syriac witnesses are all consulted to create a sort of historical theology of heaven, without losing sight of the transcendent nature of the subject and the necessity for apophatic language in describing it. Russell is attentive to the authors' intentions, ''the most important element in understanding a text, '' and insists that ''engaging the author in loving dialogue as a real person'' allows us to escape ''the dead heart of reductionism and the dead hand of deconstruction. '' It is here that we encounter Russell as a personally engaged scholar, as one who not only investigates heaven as a concept but writes as a believer in its reality. As he concludes his study with insights into Dante's vision of heaven, it is not surprising to find Russell making the poet's rapturous language his own.
