Description: Rudolf Otto and the Foundation of the History of Religions by Yoshitsugu Sawai Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description This book provides an up-to-date treatment of Rudolf Otto and his work, placing him in the context of comparative religion, theology, and the philosophy of religion.Yoshitsugu Sawai shows how Otto has "three faces": the Lutheran Theologian, the Philosopher of Religion, and the Comparative Religionist. The book also shows how, of these, Otto saw himself primarily as a Lutheran Theologian, and provides an account of Ottos engagement with India and the centrality that Hindu theology had on his thinking.In Ottos theory of religion, his well-known concepts including "wholly other" and "numinous" constitute a multiple structure of meaning. For example, his concept of the "wholly other" (das ganz Andere) no doubt has the meaning of "God" in his Christian theological studies. At the same time, however, from the perspective of comparative religion or the phenomenology of religion, this same term semantically implies the "ultimate reality" of other religious traditions; "Brahman" and "God" (Isvara) in Hindu religious tradition as well as "God" in Christianity. Author Biography Yoshitsugu Sawai is Emeritus Professor of Religious Studies at Tenri University, Japan. He has published books and articles in both Japanese and English on the Vedanta philosophy of the Sankaran religious tradition, the "Oriental Philosophy" of the Japanese philosopher Toshihiko Izutsu, and Tenrikyo theology.
