The Mysticism Of Johann Joseph Von Gorres As A Reaction Against Rationalism is a book written by Gonzaga, Sister Mary and published in 1920. The book provides a detailed analysis of the mysticism of Johann Joseph von Gorres, a German philosopher and theologian who lived in the 19th century. Gorres was a prominent figure in the Catholic Church and was known for his mystical writings and his rejection of rationalism. The book explores Gorres' philosophy and his views on mysticism, which he saw as a way to connect with God and experience the divine. The author examines Gorres' works and beliefs in the context of the intellectual and cultural climate of the time, which was characterized by the rise of rationalism and the decline of religious faith. The book also highlights the influence of Gorres' ideas on other prominent thinkers of his time, including Friedrich Nietzsche and Martin Heidegger. The author argues that Gorres' mysticism was a reaction against the prevailing rationalist worldview, and that his ideas continue to be relevant today, particularly in the context of the ongoing debate between science and religion.Overall, The Mysticism Of Johann Joseph Von Gorres As A Reaction Against Rationalism is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the life and work of one of the most important thinkers of the 19th century.
