About the Book

Powers of chaos accompany any order of the human world, being the force against which this order is set. Human experience of history is two-fold. There is history ruled by chaos and history ruled by order. "History" occurs in a continuous flow of both histories. The dialectics of life unto nothingness/creation, struggles for order/order achieved is unceasingly actual. In exploring it, within a wide interdisciplinary and transcultural range, this book reaches beyond a conventional "philosophy of history". It deals with the chaotic as well as the cosmic part of the human historical experience. It stages this drama through the tales that religious, mythical, literary, philosophical, folkloristic, and historiographical sources tell and which are retold and interpreted here. From early on humans wished to know where, why, and wherefore all started and took place. Couldn't the dialectics between chaos and order be meaningful? Couldn't they assume a productive role as to the world's precarious event? Power, strife, guilt, divine grace and revelation, literary symbolization, as well as storytelling are discussed in this book. Philosophy, political theory, theology, religious studies, and literary studies will greatly benefit from its width and density.

Review :
"The book provides excellent analyses of case studies about the question of history and how different civilizations account for their relationship to the cosmos. For those interested in the question of history and where it comes form, this book is the one to consult." Lee Trepanier in: https: //voegelinview.com/wherefrom-does-history-emerge/ (05.01.2022) *** "Wherefrom Does History Emerge? is a slim volume that deserves to be widely read. It is an interesting, diverse, and immensely thought-provoking book. It will become a resource for many. Each chapter is saturated with excellent scholarship that is current and relevant, and as this review has hopefully made clear, will guide the reader through both familiar and unfamiliar historical materials, always with commentaries that are sure to enhance one's understanding and appreciation of the historical dimension of existence."
