'Thich Nhat Hanh is a holy man, for he is humble and devout. He is a scholar of immense intellectual capacity. His ideas for peace if applied, would build a monument of ecumenism, to world brotherhood, to humanity.' Martin Luther King, Jr.Budda and Jesus Christ, perhaps the two most pivotal figures in the history of humankind, each left behind a legacy of teachings and practices that have shaped the lives of billions of people over the course of two millennia. If they were to meet on the road today, what would each think of the other's spiritual views and practices? Thich Nhat Hanh has been part of a decades-long dialogue between the two greatest living contemplative traditions, and brings to Christianity an appreciation of its beauty that could be conveyed only by an outsider. In a lucid, meditative prose, he explores the crossroads of compassion and holiness at which Buddhism and Christianity meet, and reawakens our understanding of both.

Det enestående individ er både verdenshistoriens største bedrag og det bedste, man kan gøre for et andet menneske. ”Bare vær dig selv” siger de venligt til jobsamtalen. Men hvad nu, hvis jeg slet ikke er mig selv? Hvad nu, hvis jeg ikke lever op til tidens krav om at være unik, autentisk og enestående? Hvordan skal jeg så få et job, en kæreste eller finde en mening med livet?For 500 år siden forsvarede Luther sig med ordene ”Jeg står her og kan ikke andet”. I dag er det ikke blot individets pligt at stå ene – det skal også være enestående. Det er selvrealiseringens evangelium, hvor kaldet til at arbejde for Guds ære er afløst af kaldet til at realisere sig selv. Mens renæssancehumanismen har givet os sandheden om det stærke individ og det sunde kerneselv, er det arven fra Luther til Kierkegaard og Freud, der har insisteret på, at nok er enhver sig selv nærmest, men eksistentielt set er vi os selv fjernest. Mennesket er en gåde for sig selv. Selvet er ikke en kerne men en splittelse. Og det er i denne splittelse, at vi alle er individer. Læs Christian Hjortkjærs bidrag til serien om reformationen og dens virkningshistorie fra Eksistensen, og bliv klogere på, hvorfor det enestående individ både er verdenshistoriens største bedrag og den største sandhed, man kan hjælpe et andet menneske ind i.2017 markerer 500-året for reformationens begyndelse med Luthers opslag af 95 teser mod pavekirkens afladshandel i Wittenberg i Tyskland.

Is anything ever not an interpretation? Does interpretation go all the way down? Is there such a thing as a pure fact that is interpretation-free? If not, how are we supposed to know what to think and do? These tantalizing questions are tackled by renowned American thinker John D Caputo in this wide-reaching exploration of what the traditional term ''hermeneutics'' can mean in a postmodern, twenty-first century world. As a contemporary of Derrida''s and longstanding champion of rethinking the disciplines of theology and philosophy, for decades Caputo has been forming alliances across disciplines and drawing in readers with his compelling approach to what he calls "radical hermeneutics." In this new introduction, drawing upon a range of thinkers from Heidegger to the Parisian "1968ers" and beyond, he raises a series of probing questions about the challenges of life in the postmodern and maybe soon to be ''post-human'' world.''
