The Varieties of Religious Experience pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載 2024
First published in 1902, The Varieties of Religious Experience initiated the psychological study of religion, paving the way for Freud and Jung as well as for clinical and paranormal branches of psychology. Written with humour and erudition, its theories of conversion, saintliness, ecstasy and mysticism continue to provoke controversy and enquiry. The book remains the best introduction to James's thought, demonstrating his characteristic insistence upon the importance of personal experience and his almost devotional respect for the mysteries of the human mind. Richly illustrated with personal accounts of belief and possession, intoxication and near-death experience, it is of central importance not simply to an understanding of religions, but to modern psychology and psychiatric medicine. The Routledge Centenary Edition, entirely reset from the original 1902 edition, is prefaced with a specially commissioned foreword by the author's grandson, Micky James, and with new introductions from James specialists Eugene Taylor and Jeremy Carrette. It also includes a new and expanded index.
William James was a member of the generation that founded American psychology and philosophy; his work in both these fields placed James in the forefront of the intellectual and cultural ferment that marked late 19th century America. In this classic work, he turned his attention to the psychology of religion. He examines such phenomena as conversion, repentance, mysticism, and saintliness; his observations and theoretical speculation are accompanied by personal accounts of religious experience. James believed that organized religion stifled the natural religious impulse; his belief in personal experience as the only true source of religious feeling led to a remarkable tolerance for extreme forms of religious behavior.

評分很重要的作品,但在強調personal和conversion的同時將institutional的影響完全排除,而忽視瞭宗教終究是個集體的行為
評分recommended by Wittgenstein (according to "Ludwig Wittgenstein: The Duties of Genius")

第一次听说这本书是大学时候,有位同学听了哲学院一门课,回来强烈推荐。当时借来看了百十来页没看下去。之后没事会想起来看,但都没再看。这次是因为看到沃格林在文章中提到詹姆斯,虽然沃格林认为詹姆斯还没有发觉柏拉图的价值,但已经是他那个时代的佼佼者了。想着沃格林的...
評分威廉·詹姆斯的《宗教经验种种》的确是一部伟大的作品。生活在一个科学洗礼的时代,詹姆斯用科学的方法分析宗教经验,却得出宗教乃人类本性的“非科学”的结论。他借以考察宗教经验的方法,最根本的一条是保持它们的鲜活性,将活生生的经验呈现给读者。 任何概念或范畴,一旦脱...
評分原载《文景》2010年1、2月合刊 詹氏《宗教经验种种》在西方已经成为经典,中国学术界还缺少重视。虽然上世纪唐钺先生已经译出,于1947年由商务印书馆出版,但研究者寥寥。现今,新建君发大志愿重译之,以为当下语境读者之需,还写出长篇学术导言,难得也。詹氏不仅...
評分这本书是美国心理学之父威廉·詹姆士关于宗教经验的二十次演讲的逐字稿。非常特别的视角去看待宗教,或者可以说是站在心理学的角度,从生理经验和心理经验上去认知宗教。 而且并没有区别不同的宗教,虽然看的出是以天主教为主,但更多的是对于所有宗教的共性之处。按照詹姆士的...
評分《宗教经验种种》基本上是以西方的神秘体验为案例,而西方的神秘体验基本上是以上帝的存在为背景的,西方人,许是情感强烈的缘故,灵魂的救赎多是以上帝临现开始的。 而在东方甚至没有神秘主义的说法,在佛教中,那些神秘体验和神通能力只是修行过程中的一种客观表象。不同...
