{"product_id":"the-legend-of-death-john-milbank-9781556359156","title":"The Legend of Death","description":"The Earth's thin crust of organic matter and the still thinner crust of the spirit is the most concentrated, the most suggestive part of the cosmos. It in every way exceeds itself by pointing above its horizontal surface towards vertical transcendence. However, it can never leave itself behind and always carries itself with itself in every ascent. Poetry attends to the resultant human diagonal. --from the preface to the first sequence, \"\"On the Diagonal: Metaphysical Landscapes\"\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Milbank\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1556359152\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781556359156\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cascade Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/04\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.80h x 5.90w x 0.50d","brand":"John Milbank","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46140763341055,"sku":"9781556359156","price":26.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_469048af-c0d7-4f97-918f-4821d2f8ee4e.jpg?v=1726596958","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-legend-of-death-john-milbank-9781556359156","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
