It will become the standard reference in the field.Features: * Each volume opens with a general introduction, presenting an overview of philosophy of religion in the period * Each essay opens with a brief biography, then outlines and analyses that philosopher's contribution to thinking on religion, anc concludes with key further reading * Essays are cross-referenced, highlighting the development of major ideas and influences across history * Each volume closes with a chronology, presenting a contextual guide to the main religious, political, cultural and artistic events of the period * Each volume contains its own bibliography and index. |
