His thinking has remained largely in the shadows. For the first time, this book reveals Monchanin as a key thinker of the Mystery of Trinity who was a central influence on philosophers and theologians including Henri de Lubac and Hans Urs von Balthasar. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Now available in an English edition, Yann Vagneux's text undertakes a thorough synthesis of Monchanin's thought based on his unpublished notebooks and letters, and at the same time raises theological questions and conundrums that few thinkers involved in Hindu-Christian studies dare to tackle. This volume first reveals Monchanin's contribution to the intensity of intellectual life in Lyon in the 1930's and sets out his foundation of a Trinitarian Ontology; the companion second volume, \u003ci\u003eJules Monchanin's Interreligious Philosophy: The Encounter of Christian and Hindu Mysticism (1939-1957), \u003c\/i\u003eoutlines how his thought was influenced by dialogue with Hinduism during his time in India. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The book will be a key text for scholars studying comparative philosophy of religion, including scholarly material in several appendices: a chronology of Monchanin's writings; a bibliography of works by and about Monchanin, published and unpublished; a reconstruction of his thinking on time, which he elaborated in letters and fragmentary notes but was unable to complete before his death.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Yann Vagneux\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/08\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e Explorations in Philosophy and Theology\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.63d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781350518834","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45361564713097,"sku":"9781350518834","price":115.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_c471d104-f15d-4255-af1b-e8330fc2499f.jpg?v=1773170477","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/the-trinitarian-philosophy-of-jules-monchanin-the-french-years-1922-1939-9781350518834","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
