  • Luminous Darkness
    Caitlin Smith Gilson / Scott Carol
    The Seven cycles of poetry--rooted in each of Christ’s Seven Last Words--intend a unified philosophical and theological dwelling. Here, the poet begins from the irresistible force of finality, the very wager of existence itself, and makes herself dialogic magnet, working to draw in and draw out the core of the human and divine relationship. On Good Friday, we are taught the poe...

  • All This, and Heaven Too
    Caitlin Smith Gilson
    This book offers an intelligent but accessible recovery of the Christian hope for heaven and the resurrected life. Our ideas of heaven often need rescuing from the well-meaning but often empty sense of a 'better-place.' It is more fruitful, the author argues, to orientate ourselves by St. Paul’s words: 'For this world is not our permanent home; we are looking forward to a home ...

  • The Impossible Possibility
    Caitlin Smith Gilson
    This work is a meditation on the integral mystery of forgiveness as both impossible to achieve and yet necessary for salvation. We must forgive, yet we cannot. Through themes of loss, sin, love, and virtue in literature, art, poetry, and theology, Caitlin Smith Gilson shows us how the need for forgiveness is a universal longing that directs us to the very hope for eternal life....

  • Rhapsody and Redolence
    Caitlin Smith Gilson / Carol Scott
    This is a work of doing, of poesis, an enacting philosophy and theology through immediacy. It seeks to call to mind our original interrogative stance in Being, as did the Eleatic poem, the dialogic power of Plato, even Heidegger’s indwelling. Should the philosopher want to recover philosophical wonder, then this is the road to be traveled; thought needs raw unmanageable experie...

  • As It Is in Heaven
    Caitlin Smith Gilson
    The loss of a real and heartfelt belief in God--and by 'real' I mean an experience that is both steady and moving, ethereal though down-to-earth, sentimental but never trite--comes from an earlier more foundational loss, namely that of an ardent and directed desire for heaven, and more specifically, that paradisal longing for the resurrected life. This book seeks to recover the...

  • Tregenna Hill
    Caitlin Smith Gilson
    Tregenna Hill: Altars and Allegories are love poems cutting through and across the many layers of love: personal, historical, religious, and philosophical; an elegy to the beginnings and ends, to the untranslatable moments in time which contain all that is Good and Beautiful. At the altar before God and human intimacy, there remains the gentle yet brutal yoking of eros and agap...

  • Subordinated Ethics
    Caitlin Smith Gilson
    With Dostoyevsky’s Idiot and Aquinas’ Dumb Ox as guides, this book seeks to recover the elemental mystery of the natural law, a law revealed only in wonder. If ethics is to guide us along the way, it must recover its subordination; description must precede prescription. If ethics is to invite us along the way, it cannot lead, either as politburo, or even as public orthodoxy. It...

  • Immediacy and Meaning
    Caitlin Smith Gilson
    Immediacy and Meaning seeks to approach the odd uneasiness at root in all metaphysical meaning; that the human knower attempts to mediate what cannot be mediated; that there is a pre-cognitive immemorial immediacy to Being that renders its participants irreducible, incommunicable and personal. The dilemma of metaphysics rests on the relationship between the spectator and the pl...

  • The Political Dialogue of Nature and Grace
    Caitlin Smith Gilson
    The discourse between nature and grace finds its linguistic and existential podium in the political condition of human beings. As Caitlin Smith Gilson shows, it is in this arena that the perennial territorial struggle of faith and reason, God and man, man and state, take place; and it is here that the understanding of the personal-as-political, as well as the political-as-perso...
