Spirituality and Transcendence in Old Age (Ralph Kunz). 330 $aThis book focuses on ageing as a topic of philosophical, theological, and historical anthropology. It provides a systematic inventory of fundamental theoretical questions and assumptions involved in the discussion of ageing and old age. What does it mean for human beings to grow old and become more vulnerable and dependent? How can we understand the manifestations of ageing and old age in the human body? How should we interpret the processes of change in the temporal course of a human life? What impact does old age have on the social dimensions of human existence? In order to tackle these questions, the volume brings together internationally distinguished scholars from the fields of philosophy, theology, cultural studies, social gerontology, and ageing studies. The collection of their original articles makes a twofold contribution to contemporary academic discourse. On one hand, it helps to clarify and deepen our understanding of ageing and old age by examining it from the fundamental point of view of philosophical, theological, and historical anthropology. At the same time, it also enhances and expands the discourses of philosophical, theological, and historical anthro­pology by systematically taking into account that human beings are essentially ageing creatures. 410 0$aInternational Perspectives on Aging,$x2197-585X ;$v25 606 $aAging 606 $aSocial sciences 606 $aHumanities 606 $aPhilosophy of mind 606 $aSelf 606 $aReligion and sociology 606 $aAnthropology 606 $aAgeing 606 $aHumanities and Social Sciences 606 $aPhilosophy of the Self 606 $aSociology of Religion 606 $aAnthropology 615 0$aAging. 615 0$aSocial sciences. 615 0$aHumanities. 615 0$aPhilosophy of mind. 615 0$aSelf. 615 0$aReligion and sociology. 615 0$aAnthropology. 615 14$aAgeing. 615 24$aHumanities and Social Sciences. 615 24$aPhilosophy of the Self. 615 24$aSociology of Religion. 615 24$aAnthropology. 676 $a305.26 702 $aSchweda$b Mark 702 $aCoors$b Michael 702 $aBozzaro$b Claudia 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910373939703321 996 $aAging and human nature$92020299 997 $aUNINA
