Beschreibung: | 300+ entries covering notions of love that include emotions, actions, and relationships as expressed in world religions, philosophies, and cultures. Contributions from nearly 200 distinguished international scholars representing diverse religious traditions and cultures. A vivid and informative illustration program of classic art, drawings, and photographs representing love in the full spectrum of the world's spiritual cultures. Bibliographies of key sources for each entry, with citations from a variety of disciplines (religion, philosophy, history, anthropology, and more). Indexes organized by concepts, titles of classic texts, and religions. The first comprehensive resource on the role of love in the world's major religions and cultures. Brings coherence to a subject usually covered within the narrow parameters of a single discipline or perspective. The team of contributors is comprised of the world's leading scholars on the thoughts, practices, and literature of Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, and Hinduism. The renowned contributors make the teachings of love throughout the centuries accessible and compelling to today's readers. |
