The Beauty Of The Infinite by David Bentley Hart
The Aesthetics of Christian Truth
A dense work of theological aesthetics that defends the Christian narrative as a rhetoric of peace, contending that divine beauty discloses an infinite plenitude that persuades rather than coerces. Engaging and critiquing modern and postmodern accounts of the sublime and of difference as inherently violent, it draws on patristic sources to articulate a Trinitarian metaphysics in which truth is manifest as harmony, gratuity, and analogical participation.
