When Souls Had Wings: Pre-Mortal Existence in Western Thought
Givens, Terryl L. (Professor of Religion and Literature, Professor of Religion and Literature, University of Richmond)
The idea of the pre-existence of the soul has been extremely important, widespread, and persistent throughout Western history-from even before the philosophy of Plato to the poetry of Robert Frost. This book offers the first systematic history of this little explored feature of Western culture. Terryl Givens underscores how durable (and controversial) this idea has been throughout history, highlighting the theological dangers it has represented, and revealing howprominently it has featured in poetry, literature, and art.
