內容簡介

INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

Financial Times’ "Best books of 2023 -- Health & Wellness"

Life Worth Living is transcendent. A collection of wisdom punctuated by questions of great consequence, this is the only book you need to find your way from where you are to where you are called to be."
--Kelly Corrigan, NYT bestselling author, host of Kelly Corrigan Wonders and PBS’s Tell Me More

Based on the Yale class, a guide to defining and then creating a flourishing life, and answering one of life’s most pressing questions: how are we to live?

AN OPEN FIELD PUBLICATION FROM MARIA SHRIVER

What makes a good life? The question is inherent to the human condition, asked by people across generations, professions, and social classes, and addressed by all schools of philosophy and religions. This search for meaning, as Yale faculty Miroslav Volf, Matthew Croasmun, and Ryan McAnnally-Linz argue, is at the crux of a crisis that is facing Western culture, a crisis that, they propose, can be ameliorated by searching, in one’s own life, for the underlying truth.

In Life Worth Living, named after its authors’ highly sought-after undergraduate course, Volf, Croasmun, and McAnnally-Linz chart out this question, providing readers with jumping-off points, road maps, and habits of reflection for figuring out where their lives hold meaning and where things need to change.

Drawing from the major world religions and from impressively truthful and courageous secular figures, Life Worth Living is a guide to life’s most pressing question, the one asked of all of us: How are we to live?

 

作者簡介

Miroslav Volf, Matthew Croasmun, and Ryan McAnnally-Linz teach the most in-demand course in Yale College’s Humanities Program: Life Worth Living. Students describe the course as life-changing, and preliminary analyses by an outside researcher show strongly significant effects of the course on students’ satisfaction with life and sense of meaning in life.


Volfis the Henry B. Wright Professor of Theology at Yale Divinity School and director of the Yale Center for Faith & Culture. A leading religious public intellectual and author of over a dozen books, he won the 2002 Grawemeyer Award in Religion for Exclusion and Embrace, which was also named one of the one hundred most influential religious books of the twentieth century by Christianity Today.


Croasmunis the director of the Life Worth Living program at the Yale Center for Faith & Culture, a lecturer in humanities at Yale College, and the faith initiative director at Grace Farms Foundation. He is the author of The Emergence of Sin (Oxford University Press) and Let Me Ask You a Question (Upper Room), as well as a coauthor with Volf of For the Life of the World: Theology That Makes a Difference (Brazos).


McAnnally-Linz is the associate director of the Yale Center for Faith & Culture. He is a coauthor with Volf of Public Faith in Action (Brazos), a 2016 Publishers Weekly Best Book in religion, and has written for The Washington Post’s Acts of Faith, Sojourners, and The Christian Century.

本書是從耶魯大學的「Life worth living」課程產生的,由於我自己在大學教的課有些部份也牽涉到這部份,所以我就買來看了。
不得不佩服作者群結合了佛家、儒家以及伊斯蘭、基督、天主等宗教思想,還找了許多例子,來設計這樣的一門課程。
但是我覺得台灣的學生大概不會想修這樣的課,有點太說教了。其實我蠻好奇在耶魯大學這樣的一門課,每學期有多少學生修呢?
