In the face of this crisis, his book \u003ci\u003eThe Analogical Turn\u003c\/i\u003e recovers the fifteenth-century thinker Nicholas of Cusa's alternative vision of modernity to develop a fresh perspective on the challenges of our time. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn contrast to his mainstream contemporaries, Cusa's appreciation of individuality, creativity, and scientific precision was deeply rooted in the analogical rationality of the Middle Ages. He revived and transformed the tradition of scientific realism in a manner that now, retrospectively, offers new insights into the \"completely ordinary chaos\" of postmodern everyday life. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHoff's original study offers a new vision of the history of modernity and the related secularization narrative, a deconstruction of the basic assumptions of postmodernism, and an unfolding of a liturgically grounded concept of common-sense realism.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 267\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.7 x 8.98 x 6.11 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 11, 2013\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52725708751155,"sku":"9780802868909","price":52.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/lc1Qmx_Fg69780802868909.webp?v=1763718928","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/the-analogical-turn-rethinking-modernity-with-nicholas-of-cusa-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
