About the Book

A foundational probe into being, causality and the cosmos. Ideas that still unsettle minds. Delivered as part of the early twentieth century lectures at Glasgow during 1916-1918, Samuel Alexander's Space, Time, and Deity maps the nature of space and time with philosophical patience and occasional lyrical sweep. A philosophy of religion book in the fullest sense, it blends metaphysics and ontology with philosophical theology to sketch a modernist account of reality - one that treats spatial and temporal structures as central to questions about God, mind and world. Alexander writes with a clarity that favours argument over appeal, tracing consequences for agency, persistence and becoming while refusing easy separation between scientific insight and metaphysical claim. The lectures sit naturally within the Gifford Lectures collection and continue to repay readers interested in comparative religion studies, metaphysical method, and the intellectual currents that fed into process philosophy origins. Historically and literarily, Alexander's lectures are recognised as a philosophical theology classic: their formal clarity and speculative reach helped shape debates in modernist philosophical thought and still inform the Scottish academic tradition. For contemporary readers, they offer both a rigorous introduction to central problems in metaphysics and a vantage point on how theology engaged scientific ideas a century ago. As an academic philosophy resource they reward close reading; university philosophy students will find the argumentative structure excellent training in conceptual analysis, while general readers curious about the nature of space and time can follow a philosophically serious yet readable line of thought. Accessible to curious readers and prized by classic-literature collectors, it rewards both casual dipping and sustained study. Indeed. A rich resource for historians of ideas, it invites renewed attention. Scholars of religion and philosophy will find ample material for citation and reflection. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike.
