S'interroger sur la place du désir en islam est loin d'être anecdotique tant celui-ci y est tabou et central à la fois. Tabou en ce qu'un certain nombre de théologiens fondamentalistes voient dans le désir une forme de dévoilement diabolique. Central en ce qu'il est essentiellement humain, voire même profondément spirituel. Par essence, l'islam embrasse de nombreux aspects de la vie et codifie le lien au corps. Et alors que dans une vision dogmatique de l'islam, le désir est une réalité refoulée et donc proscrite, pour Malek Chebel il en est, au contraire, une part essentielle, anticipation du Paradis, et condition du bonheur ici-bas. A travers l'étude de la calligraphie, du tatouage, de l'amour des pierres précieuses, de l'art des jardins, etc, l'auteur nous relève l'importance du beau et du nu en islam, reflets d'une existence de plaisir tout autant que d'une attitude spirituelle. Face au constat tragique de l'affaiblissement du Logos en terre d'islam, il faut initier une nouvelle théologie, celle de la Raison face à l'idéologie assassine, celle de la Lumière face à l'obscurantisme, celle de la paix face à la monstruosité du crime, celle du désir face à l'interdit. Un véritable traité du bonheur en terre d'islam.

In this broad historical and critical overview based on a lifetime of scholarship, James Alfred Martin, Jr., examines the development of the concepts of beauty and holiness as employed in theories of aesthetics and of religion. The injunction in the Book of Psalms to "worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness" addressed a tradition that has comprehended holiness primarily in terms of ethical righteousness--a conception that has strongly influenced Western understandings of religion. As the author points out, however, the Greek forbears of Western thought, as well as many Eastern traditions, were and are more broadly concerned with the pursuit of beauty, truth, and goodness as ideals of human excellence, that is, with the "holiness of beauty." In this work Martin describes a philosophical stance that should prove to be most productive for the dialogue between aesthetics and religion.Beginning with the treatment of beauty and holiness in Hebrew, Greek, and classical Christian thought, the author traces the emergence of modern theories of aesthetics and religion in the Enlightenment. He then outlines the role of aesthetics in the theories of religion proposed by Otto, Eliade, van der Leeuw, and Tillich, in the cultural anthropology of Geertz, and in the thought of Santayana, Dewey, Whitehead, Heidegger, and Wittgenstein. In a global context Martin explores the relation of aesthetic theory to religious thought in the traditions of India, China, and Japan and concludes with reflections on the viability of modern aesthetic and religious theory in the light of contemporary cultural and methodological pluralism.Originally published in 1990.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.

This study develops the ethical theory implicit in the writings of Hans Urs von Balthasar, a prominent twentieth-century Swiss Catholic theologian. Balthasar's attempt to critically retrieve the concept of beauty for Christian theology yields important ethical insights, culminating in an aesthetic and dramatic theory of ethics: one in which the perception of the beauty of God's love in Christ becomes a foundational experience for moral formation and ongoing ethical discernment.
