My research on divorced women accompanied by drawings by Saul Steinberg

Author's name: Paul Tillich Publisher: Al-Rafidain for Publishing and Distribution Year of publication: 2025 Literary classification: Philosophy and Thought Brief about the book: Tillich in this book refers to the absolute nature of moral duty, aware and clarifying at the same time, its relative manifestation in every action performed by man and in every decision he makes. The reader, upon following the biographical material that precedes this text, encounters Tillich's unique talent in depicting the structural coexistence and kinship between sensory experience and the logical naturality of the mind, as well as illustrating their harmony despite their apparent divergence. For the weight of human existence, with its crises and greatness, lies in what man carries from an infinite covenant, and also, paradoxically, in his finite ability to accomplish and fulfill this covenant. Thus, the search for the infinite meaning in every human life, historically and spiritually, does not last because of the existential emergencies of the human condition but despite them. This process contains the mysterious nature of reality as well as the ideal, representing the final and decisive acceptance that establishes the full maturity of man. This book consists of lectures that Tillich delivered at the College of Law affiliated with the University of Chicago. Had he lived, he intended to deliver the same lectures at Harvard University as part of a program called "Nobel Lectures." The vibrant and extraordinary clarity of Tillich's mind and spirit radiates throughout the text. This clarity inspired Saul Steinberg's drawings with strength and insight. Tillich and Steinberg each possess, in their own style, that charismatic ability related intimately to humanity's deep need for order.
