reunified field
Karsten Harries has so much to say it's easy to lose track what he's trying to affirm: the possibility of objective truth; the presence of God in the notion of the infinite; the presence of the infinite in the imagination of human beings; the dead-end subjectivity of postmodern thought. It's all here, a bit hard to get to on occasion due to the density of Mr Harries logic, but clearly stated and passionately argued. At the heart of Infinity and Perspective is the early rennaissance philosopher Cusanus, cardinal, politician, and theologian. Harries admires Cusanus for his ability to connect the real world to the imaginary and human behavior to divine cognition. That feels a lot like what Harries himself tries to attempt in this book: to find a center when the center has not held, and a defense of truth as spiritual presence.
