{"product_id":"to-broaden-the-way","title":"To Broaden the Way","description":"\u003ci\u003eTo Broaden the Way\u003c\/i\u003e suggests that the texts of both the Jewish and Confucian tradition talk in riddles of a special kind: riddles, which are introduced - and answered - by religious forms of life. Using a \"dialogue of riddles,\" Galia Patt-Shamir presents a comparative perspective of Confucianism and Judaism regarding the relatedness between contradictory expressions in texts and living conflicts. The Confucian riddle is characterized here as a mystery to be deciphered by self-reflection, under the assumptions of a harmonious community, and a unity of being. The Jewish riddle is characterized as a test to be responded to, under the assumption of a disharmonious community, and a necessary rapture in reality. This book expands the dialogue between traditions, and offers both a method and an implication of the question, \"what is religion about?\"","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing Plc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54233453527384,"sku":"9780739111918","price":52.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780739111918.jpg?v=1770881450","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/to-broaden-the-way","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
