Idas y vueltas de la trascendencia en la Modernidad
(LA Referencia, 2006) Mariano Fazio
For many years scholars have tended to divide the history of western thought into a deeply Christian Middle Ages and, by opposition, a singulary secularized Modrnity. Although Modernity tended to close itself to transcendence, at the same time it exhibited the need for a vision which did not end in a merely earhly existence. A reflection of this conception are the so-called secularized eschatologies or absolutizations of the relative. There was also an open Modernity, which "faced" transcendence; it is this current of thought which inspires an immanent transcendece, an unfailing guide and presenter of the hope required to negotiate the desert spaces suggested by the culture of contemporaneity.
