The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self: Cultural Amnesia, Expressive Individualism, and the Road to Sexual Revolution
The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self: Cultural Amnesia, Expressive Individualism, and the Road to Sexual Revolution
"This book is perhaps the most significant analysis and evaluation of Western culture written by a Protestant during the past fifty years."
--Bruce Riley Ashford, Professor of Theology and Culture, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary Modern culture is obsessed with identity. Since the landmark Obergefell v. Hodges Supreme Court decision in 2015, sexual identity has dominated both public discourse and cultural trends--yet no historical phenomenon is its own cause. From Augustine to Marx, various views and perspectives have contributed to the modern understanding of the self. In this timely book, Carl Trueman analyzes the development of the sexual revolution as a symptom--rather than the cause--of the human search for identity. Trueman surveys the past, brings clarity to the present, and gives guidance for the future as Christians navigate the culture in humanity's ever-changing quest for identity.
"Carl Trueman explains modernity to the church, with depth, clarity, and force. The significance of The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self . . . is hard to overstate."

Recomand din toata inima.
O carte care ne poarta prin istoria "de ce-ului" revolutiei sexuale si cum am ajuns la astazi.
Altfel spus, revolutia sexuala nu a aparut din neant, ci omul in cautarea sinelui, si prin eliminarea in timp a lui Dumnezeu din ecuatie, a ajuns la cautari interioare unde a descoperit un alt eu... sau cel putin asta sustin ei.
Nu explic foarte bine, dar recomand cu caldura cartea.
E un studiu de analiza a cum a ajuns societatea in acest stadiu - cum ai studia un criminal (nu asociez cele doua, doar firul studiului) ca sa afli cum a ajuns de la un copil din familie normala la un criminal in serie.
