About this ebook
Almond places Otto’s theory of religion within the context of his life (1869-1937), looking closely at the significant influences on Otto’s thought, among them thinkers as different as Kant and the German Pietists. Elements of Otto’s theories are shown to be closely related to the social and intellectual milieu of Germany both before and after World War I. Almond examines Otto’s conception of the Holy, of rational and nonrational elements of religion, and compares his views with those of his contemporaries.
