Truth & Revelation

Nikolai A. Berdyaev

4.5/5 ( ratings)

Truth and Revelation is a stunning reconsideration of the fundamental problems of Christianity, the sum of a lifetime of thought by one of the greatest Christian philosophers of the twentieth century. It seeks an ever-deepening understanding of the transcendental nature of man and of the limitations imposed upon spiritual revelation by the human mind.

Writing with even more than his customary power and conviction, Nicolas Berdyaev presents an outspoken indictment of those systems of social, political, and religious thinking which have "objectified" man, alienating his divine element by relating it to a phenomenal world and to a God of authority rather than to a God of truth. Though pessimism and godlessness have, in Berdyaev's opinion, enslaved man, he foresees a future age of spiritual revelation in which the link between the human and the divine will be realized anew.
