This book is a supplement to the author’s earlier New Hegelian Essays. It continues the project of presenting the narrative(s) of religion as intelligible metaphysics, “interpreting spiritual things spiritually”, as St. Paul says. After an introductory recall of the unreality of the phenomenal individual except insofar as viewed as “in” God, the Absolute, so that all depend upon all, the first subject to be considered is faith itself, too often seen as the polar and hence negative opposite of reason. After this, we plunge straight for the hidden philosophical implications of the Trinity, leading on to a rational viewing of the doctrines of Creation and Incarnation, actually essentially connected. A false view of Creation, as, consequently, of divine transcendence, is here corrected. God has no otherness with which he is not at the same time united and hence identified and this is the very opposite of pantheism, is acosmism rather, God being “all in all”. Regarding Incarnation, its full humanistic implications, in a context of Absolute Idealism as the philosophical and true view, are here teased out. Finally, we move to a consideration of “practical reason”, virtues, ethical imperatives, their true character and import. The book concludes with some consideration of the eventual role of such philosophy as holding together a great contemporary political project, the European Union.

While, strictly speaking, Alternate Histories are not Future Narratives, their analysis can shed a clear light on why Future Narratives are so different from past narratives. Trying to have it both ways, most Alternate Histories subscribe to a conflicting set of beliefs concerning determinism and freedom of choice, contingency and necessity. For the very first time, Alternate Histories are here discussed against the backdrop of their Other, Future Narratives. The volume contains in-depth analyses of the classics of the genre,such as Philip K. Dick's The Man in the High Castle and Philip Roth's The Plot against America, as well as less widely-discussed manifestations of the genre, such as Dieter Kühn's N, Christian Kracht's Ich werde hier sein im Sonnenschein und im Schatten, and Quentin Tarantino's film Inglourious Basterds.

This book was written for bright, brave and curious people who wish to become farsighted, to find other meanings and necessities beyond our recent Grand Tales (Religion, Pessimism, Capitalism and Science). The Fifth Narrative is about our emergence out of our "dung beetle´" state. It reveals our unawareness that the "dungballs" which currently sustain us (Grand Narratives) constrain our ability to be farsighted thus endangering our future evolution. It tells how human folly in our time seems more than ever to confound these grand stories and their bearing meaning. It explains why a new grand Narrative is necessary in order to survive and prevail. And why a new psychology encompassing areas like global ecology, demography, resources and politics is of impending necessity. The book deals with the emergence of a new civilization through technology and farsighted knowledge, which will form and guide our further evolution. Its essential message is: Let us become wiser ascending Icarus, rising beyond our limiting schemes and perspectives.

'What Necessity Knows' is a novel written by L. Dougall. The story begins with a conversation between Robert Trenholme, a clergyman, and a member of his congregation who has come to seek advice and sympathy for a difficult situation. Trenholme provides both, emphasizing the importance of seeking help from divine sources in addition to help from fellow human beings. The conversation does not seem to have a strong impact on the visitor, who leaves still feeling troubled. Trenholme shows the visitors out with a friendly manner, but is left feeling a sense of disappointment, as if he has failed in his attempt to provide comfort.

The essays collected in this volume address a range of issues that arise when the focus of philosophical reflection on identity is shifted from metaphysical to practical and evaluative concerns. They also explore the usefulness of the notion of narrative for articulating and responding to these issues. The chapters, written by an outstanding roster of international scholars, address a range of complex philosophical issues concerning the relationship between practical and metaphysical identity, the embodied dimensions of the first-personal perspective, the kind of reflexive agency involved in the self-constitution of one’s practical identity, the relationship between practical identity and normativity, and the temporal dimensions of identity and selfhood. In addressing these issues, contributors engage with debates in the literatures on personal identity, phenomenology, moral psychology, action theory, normative ethical theory, and feminist philosophy.

This dissertation argues that eighteenth-century picaresque narratives opposed modern notions of individual autonomy and social progress by stressing questions of necessity. The picaresque highlights the kinds of causes - such as bodily need or economic hardship - that overpower individual and collective capacities for self-determination. Whereas eighteenth-century scholarship has long emphasized the affiliation between the rise of the novel and the rise of the autonomous individual, Picaresque Necessity argues that authors such as Daniel Defoe and Tobias Smollett were preoccupied with how states of extreme need threaten an individual's capacity for survival and social advancement. I argue that the open-ended and repetitive nature of the picaresque stems from its emphasis on the interminable demands of the body, and that its episodic narrative defies higher order modes of explanation by lingering on the irreducible power of bodily need. Necessity resists being apprehended in the objective language of social or political theory because its impetus can only be felt by the sufferer, whose testimony is thus often disregarded as irredeemably partial and subjective. By insisting that the immediate power of necessity cannot reliably be represented in language, the picaresque exposes a gap between social theory and individual need that continues to trouble socioeconomic discourse to this day.
