{"product_id":"redemption-in-poetry-and-philosophy","title":"Redemption in Poetry and Philosophy","description":"A biblical understanding of redemption requires the sacrificial death of Jesus. In the post-Christian world envisioned by Jean-Jacques Rousseau and his Enlightenment contemporaries, the Christ-centric source of redemption disappears, though the human need for salvation remains.  \u003ci\u003eRedemption in Poetry and Philosophy\u003c\/i\u003e explores how this need for redemption is realized in the post-Christian poetics of William Wordsworth and philosophical imagination of Immanuel Kant. Simon Haines critiques the secular modes of salvation articulated by each figure to illustrate the shortcomings of modern, post-Christian imagination.  \u003ci\u003eRedemption in Poetry and Philosophy\u003c\/i\u003e highlights the ways in which prose allegedly serves as a redemptive agent for nonbelievers in the modern age, but also engenders dangerous notions of self-redemption in contemporary Christians.","brand":"Baylor University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57259830411608,"sku":"9781602587809","price":51.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781602587809.jpg?v=1778806827","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/redemption-in-poetry-and-philosophy","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
