In this text the contemporary revival of interest in the Sacred as a category of philosophico-religious reflection radically reverses the traditional direction, taking the Sacred as the starting point of the itinerary toward the Divine. The wide variety of essays contained in this volume attempt to ground philosophy of the Sacred and the Divine in phenomenological evidence. Although employing different methodologies, the contributors register the contribution of A-T. Tymieniecka’s phenomenology of life in providing a significant 20th-century vision for the accomplishment of this task. Its pursuit finds expression here in philosophical, historical, literary and political explorations leading to construing phenomenology of the Sacred as a prerequisite to the investigation of the Divine.
