商品描述

Whether understood in a narrow sense as the popular works of a small number of (white male) authors, or as a larger more diffuse movement, twenty-first century scholars, journalists, and activists from all 'sides' in the atheism versus theism debate, have noted the emergence of a particular form of atheism frequently dubbed 'New Atheism'. The present collection has been brought together to provide a scholarly yet accessible consideration of the place and impact of 'New Atheism' in the contemporary world.

Combining traditional and innovative approaches, chapters draw on the insights of philosophers, religious studies scholars, sociologists, anthropologists, and literary critics to provide never-before-seen insights into the relationship between 'New Atheism', science, gender, sexuality, space, philosophy, fiction and much more. With contributions from Australia, Germany and the United Kingdom, the volume also presents diversity in regard to religious/irreligious commitment, with contributions from atheists, theists and more agnostic orientations.

New Atheism: Critical Perspectives and Contemporary Debates features an up-to-date overview of current research on 'New Atheism', a Foreword from Stephen Bullivant (co-editor of The Oxford Handbook of Atheism), and eleven new chapters with extensive bibliographies that will be important to both a general audience and to those conducting research in this area. It provides a much-needed fresh look at a contentious phenomenon, and will hopefully encourage the cooperation and dialogue which has predominantly been lacking in relevant contemporary debates.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

無論是狹義上理解為少數(白人男性)作者的流行作品,還是作為一個更大且更分散的運動,二十一世紀的學者、記者和活動家在無神論與有神論的辯論中,已注意到一種特定形式的無神論的出現,這種無神論常被稱為「新無神論」。本書的集合旨在提供一個學術性但易於理解的考量,探討「新無神論」在當代世界中的地位和影響。

本書結合了傳統與創新的方法,章節中引用了哲學家、宗教研究學者、社會學家、人類學家和文學批評家的見解,提供了前所未見的洞察,探討「新無神論」與科學、性別、性取向、空間、哲學、小說等之間的關係。來自澳大利亞、德國和英國的貢獻也展現了在宗教/非宗教信仰方面的多樣性,包括無神論者、有神論者及更多不可知論的觀點。

《新無神論:批判視角與當代辯論》提供了有關「新無神論」的最新研究概述,並附有《牛津無神論手冊》的共同編輯Stephen Bullivant的前言,以及十一個新章節,並附有廣泛的參考書目,對於一般讀者和在此領域進行研究的人士都將具有重要意義。本書提供了一個急需的新視角,針對這一具爭議性的現象,並希望能促進在相關當代辯論中一直缺乏的合作與對話。
