Edward Farley explains that such diminishment does not necessarily imply their demise since traces of these symbols remain and invite their rethinking. Two introductory chapters spell out the character and prospect of deep symbols in postmodern society. Then follow five chapters, each of which considers a particular deep symbol: tradition, obligation (duty), reality, law, and hope. 606 $aSigns and symbols$xSocial aspects 606 $aLanguage and languages$xReligious aspects 615 0$aSigns and symbols$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aLanguage and languages$xReligious aspects. 676 $a302.2/22 700 $aFarley$b Edward$f1929-$0547164 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910781768203321 996 $aDeep symbols$93741213 997 $aUNINA
