It focuses on various aspects of literary imagination, with essays ranging from Petrarch to Voltaire; on the canon, with essays on western history as one of shifting cultural horizons and ideals, and including censorship; and on the Christian Middle Ages, when an interesting combination of religion and culture stimulated the monastic and intellectual experiments of Anselm of Canterbury and Peter Abelard. The volume is held together by the method of persistent questioning, in the tradition of the western church father and icon of the self Augustine, to discover what the values are that drive the culture of the West: where do they come from and what is their future? This volume is a Festschrift for Burcht Pranger of the University of Amsterdam. 410 0$aBrill's studies in intellectual history ;$vv. 188. 606 $aChristian literature 606 $aChristianity and literature 606 $aLiterature, Medieval 606 $aCanon (Literature) 607 $aEurope$xIntellectual life 615 0$aChristian literature. 615 0$aChristianity and literature. 615 0$aLiterature, Medieval. 615 0$aCanon (Literature) 676 $a270.5 701 $aOtten$b Willemien$0538051 701 $aVanderjagt$b Arie Johan$01504139 701 $aVries$b Hent de$0733667 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910785674803321 996 $aHow the west was won$93761651 997 $aUNINA
