Wonder

This Week's Lecture

This week we will discuss accounts of wonder and awe, how they motivate us to seek things that inspire those attitudes, and how this relates to religion and spirituality even for nonbelievers. We will focus on Helen De Cruz's accounts of wonder and awe, but also provide critiques and an alternative account.
