Contents:
A Biographical Sketch of Jürgen Habermas -- Habermass Method -- The Structure of Symbol and Sacrament -- The Symbolic Order which Mediates Reality -- Symbolic Exchange -- The Act of Symbolization -- Performative and Constative -- Salvation History as Communicative Action.
Subject: The study draws on three principle authors: John Austin was a british philosopher who developed Speech Act theory, in which utterances are understood as actions rather than merely descriptions. Jurgen Habermas is a german philosopher-sociologist who developed Austin's ideas in his theory of communicative action. Habermas identifies himself as a neo-marxist but as the philosopher of discourse he has engaged with thinkers across the political and religious spectrum. ~AMAZON: https://www.amazon.com/How-Language-Ritual-Sacraments-Work/dp/8878390380/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=9788878390386&qid=1599938002&sr=8-1
