web of text and the web of God, The
Book Description
In an age where digital technology reshapes every aspect of human experience, one profound question emerges: how does our relationship with electronic text transform our spiritual understanding and connection to the divine?
Drawing from his extensive background in literacy and education, Alan C. Purves presents a deeply contemplative exploration of hypertext and its far-reaching implications for human consciousness. This thoughtful examination reveals how our evolving relationship with digital communication fundamentally alters not only how we read and write, but how we perceive ourselves as spiritual beings in an interconnected world.
Purves weaves together insights from education, philosophy, and religious thought to illuminate the profound connections between technological literacy and spiritual awareness. His investigation moves beyond surface-level concerns about screen time or digital distraction to examine deeper questions about identity, community, and worship in the electronic age.
Through careful analysis of how hypertext influences human thought patterns and communication, this work offers readers a framework for understanding their place within both digital networks and spiritual traditions. The author's personal reflections add depth to scholarly insights, creating a bridge between academic inquiry and lived experience.
For those seeking to understand how modern technology intersects with timeless questions of meaning and faith, this volume provides a nuanced perspective on navigating spiritual life in our increasingly connected world.
