Περιγραφή τεκμηρίου: | "Perhaps then, the fictionalization of Christianity in imaginative children's literature is not a sign of the post-Christian but a harbinger of a new and truer re-imagination of Christianity as such. And it may be time to bid farewell to the monotheism of the grown-up, disenchanted cosmos - the grown-ups it produces are called bin Laden and George Bush, who invoke the sacred only as a crudely positivized apologia for their operations in a drained desert of money, machinery and electronic signals. But most people, aside from Biblical fundamentalists or analytic philosophers of religion (who have rather similar outlooks) cannot understand - and with good reason - a worldview where one acknowledges no mysteries until one suddenly stumbles upon the ultimate one of the one God. (It was to this abiding hidden popular Catholic sense of the plurally mysterious that first Newman and later Chesterton appealed.) By contrast, belief in God and in the triune God can perhaps only be revived if we re-envisage and re-imagine the immanent enchantments of the divine creation which appropriately witnesses to the transcendent One through a polytheistic profusion of created enigmas. The new tellers of fairy-tales to children and adults open out just this real horizon." (S.30-31) |
