Argues that philosophy, as multidisciplinary comparative inquiry, is essential to the contemporary academic study of religion.
What can philosophy contribute to the study of religion? This book argues that the study of religion needs philosophy in the form of multidisciplinary comparative inquiry. Contradicting the current tendency to regard philosophical reflection and the academic study of religion as independent endeavors best kept apart, Wesley J. Wildman brings them together, offering a broader vision than that of traditional âphilosophy of religionâ and surmounting many of its difficulties. His newer conception of âreligious philosophyâ is well suited to the modern, multicultural, secular university. Through multidisciplinary comparative inquiry, religious philosophy allows for a variety of approachesâfrom historical and analytical work to evocative description and theoretical evaluation of truth claimsâand both secular and religious thinkers participate. The tasks and varieties of religious philosophy as they arc across the worldâs religions and philosophies are discussed along with religious philosophyâs modern and postmodern contexts. Wildmanâs thoughtful and thought-provoking book will be essential reading for all those concerned with the study of religion, present and future.
Wesley J. Wildman is Associate Professor of Philosophy, Theology, and Ethics at Boston University. His books include Fidelity with Plausibility: Modest Christologies in the Twentieth Century, also published by SUNY Press, and Science and Religious Anthropology: A Spiritually Evocative Naturalist Interpretation of Human Life.
