''The Varieties of Religious Experience: A Study in Human Nature'' is a book by Harvard University psychologist and philosopher William James. It comprises his edited Gifford Lectures on natural theology, which were delivered at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland in 1901 and 1902. The lectures concerned the nature of religion and the neglect of science in the academic study of religion. Soon after its publication, ''Varieties'' entered the Western canon of psychology and philosophy and has remained in print for over a century. James later developed his philosophy of pragmatism. There are many overlapping ideas in ''Varieties'' and his 1907 book, ''Pragmatism''. ==Reception== The August 1902 ''New York Times'' review of the first edition ends with the following: A July 1963 ''Time'' magazine review of an expanded edition published that year ends with quotes about the book from Peirce and Santayana: 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Varieties of Religious Experience」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
