“I consider Otto Rank to be one of the great spiritual giants of the twentieth century, a genius as a psychologist and a saint as a human being. Though vilified by his original community of Freudians, he never became bitter. He died a feminist and deeply committed to social justice, in 1939....His deep understanding of creativity makes him a mentor for all of us living in a postmodern world....I believe that Art and Artist, especially chapters 12 to 14, may well emerge as the most valuable psychoanalysis of the spiritual life in our time.” WorldBelieveHumansWellsMayArtSpiritualArtistI BelieveSocialUnderstandingCommunityJusticeHuman BeingsCreativityCenturyGeniusDiedOriginalsSocial JusticeSaintCommittedFeministValuableBitterOur TimeGiantsSpiritual LifeChaptersMentorTwentieth CenturyPsychologistPsychoanalysisPostmodernGreat SpiritualDeep Understanding Author:Matthew Fox

“For others the mourning is over. Others would say that whilst one God has died - the God of ontotheology perhaps? - this allows for the good news of a God who is to come, a God who will be better able to gather up and give justice to all the manifold aspirations of human life towards goodness and meaning (and not just to those who are able to fit into a narrow 'religious' framework).” GivingHumansAbleReligiousJusticeFitGoodnessNewsDiedHuman LifeMourningAspirationGood NewsFrameworkManifold Author:George Pattison
