Recenzii
Humanism, at its best, is a creative and secular exploration of what it means to be human. No one understands this better - or has achieved more in the field of humanist studies - than Anthony B. Pinn, a legend among those who care about the positive values, histories, cultures, and communities of nonreligious people. These dialogues showcase Pinn at his most conversational and relevant.
Conversations on Humanity and Creativity is that rare thing - a scholarly book that is not only full of innovative thought, but it also explores waves of imaginative and playful expression. Anthony B. Pinn has cleverly curated a text that demonstrates the power of conversation; a mode of engagement that demonstrates conviviality and civility, outlining the best of the mythical Salon as a space for appreciative enquiry. In an age of destructive and combative polarisation, Conversations on Humanity and Creativity reveals an alternative and joyful means of engagement. This is a must read!
These fascinating conversations range widely across different areas, held together by a focus on human creativity and by Dr. Anthony B. Pinn's dedication to the art of dialogue. From his interlocutors Dr. Pinn draws out personal histories, accounts of artistic production, and trenchant reflections on religion and Black secularism.
Beautiful! This book is written in a way to pique the reader's curiosity while satisfying their craving for connection without employing a particular set of mastered dialogue skills. It is an invitation for people to engage in conversation about the mundane, fascinating, and wonder of life and humanity that allows us to simply be and understand one another. What a gift!
