Theology of Culture Attempts to show the religious dimension in many special spheres of man's cultural activiity. Theology of Culture draws together fifteen of Dr. Tillich's finest essays, in which a diversity of contemporary attitudes and problems is broght within the wide scope of his philosophy. His classic essay, "The Two Types of Philosophy of Religion," is included here as a focal argument for closing "the fateful gap between religion and culture, thus reconciling concerns which are not strange to each other, but have been estranged from each other." Dr. Tillich consequently shows "the religious dimension in many special spheres of man's cultural activity" by discussing religion in relation to art, Existentialism, psychoanalysis, science, and education. He also argues against spiritual and intellectual provincialism by comparing the cultures of Europe and America, America and Russia, and the philosophies of Protestantism and Judaism. To those already familiar with Dr. Tillich's writings, this book makes available a selection of his previously scattered essays. For those who are reading his work for the first time, this book brings together the grand motifs of the thought of a great theologian and philosopher. Paul Tillich is by general consent the most creative philosopher of religion of our generation. His new book on Theology of Culture enhances his reputation as a very seminal thinker whether he is dealing with the deficiencies of traditional supernaturalism and traditional naturalism or with the relation of religion to art, to psychoanalysis, to politics and to education. He reveals, in considering every subject, the breadth and depth of his erudition and the wisdom of his judgments. --Reinhold Niebuhr
