Rudolf Otto (1869-1937) was one of the most important contributors to the study of religions at the beginning of the 20th century. His book, The Idea of the Holy, became a sensation in its time, and his account of numinous experience as a mysterium tremendum et fascinans ("a mystery that both repels and attracts") had an effect equalled by few other ideas in the study of religions. His vocabulary broke through narrow disciplinary bounds and was taken up by scholars in a variety of disciplines in the humanities and the social sciences.Since the 1960s, Otto has been increasingly overlooked and neglected. As thinkers and scholars have turned in many other intellectual directions, they have tended to see Otto as representative of a past to be rejected. The Holy in a Pluralistic World gathers essays from a variety of perspectives - theology, religious studies, intellectual history, and cultural studies - to address what Otto's legacy for the 21st century might be.This volume explores Otto's ideas and their contexts, then turns to the area that Otto, more than any other German theologian or philosopher of religion, opened up: an engagement with the world of religions. However, Otto's influence has never been confined to systematic religious thought and the study of religions. His ideas have resonated more widely, and essays presented here examine this wider impact, in architecture, poetry, politics, and the contemporary world more generally.The Holy in a Pluralistic World is not an attempt to revivify Rudolf Otto, nor offer a magisterial statement about Otto's significance today. It issues an invitation to those with an interest not just in religions but also in cultural phenomena to take another look at Otto and his ideas. Perhaps they will find more than they expect, and something that they can use.

Almond places Otto's theory of religion within the context of his life (1869-1937), looking closely at the significant influences on Otto's thought, among them thinkers as different as Kant and the German Pietists. Elements of Otto's theories are shown to be closely related to the social and intellectual milieu of Germany both before and after World War I. Almond examines Otto's conception of the Holy, of rational and nonrational elements of religion, and compares his views with those of his contemporaries. Originally published 1984.

Rudolf Otto And The Foundation Of The History Of Religions written by Yoshitsugu Sawai and has been published by Bloomsbury Publishing this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2022-02-10 with Religion categories.


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 Otto's engagement with India and the centrality that Hindu theology had on his thinking. In Otto's 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.

Melissa Raphael presents a critical examination of the contribution made to the twentieth-century concept of holiness by the German Protestant Rudolf Otto (1869-1937). Contrary to the received view that Otto's work is primarily significant to the history and practice of the phenomenology of religion, this book argues that Otto's idea of the holy should be an anchor concept of theological discourse.

"This book attempts to penetrate the nature of that strange spiritual phenomenon which we call mysticism by comparing the two principal classic types of Eastern and Western mystical experience. By means of this comparison, and by explaining the individual features of one type by those of the other, the nature of mysticism itself becomes gradually more comprehensible." --From the Foreword
