Kevin Hart Book order

Focusing on the theory and practice of contemplation, the book delves into various religious, aesthetic, and philosophical ideas. Kevin Hart explores the unique characteristics of contemplation, providing a thoughtful philosophical introduction that highlights its significance and diverse interpretations across different disciplines.

"In Lands of Likeness, philosopher, theologian, and poet Kevin Hart utilizes the history of Christian thought and secular philosophy to develop a novel and profound hermeneutics of contemplation. Drawing in particular on the work of Arthur Schopenhauer, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, and Edmund Husserl, Hart traces the development of notions of contemplation in modernity and refines the approaches he finds there. Utilizing his refined approach, Hart trains our attention on modern poems from G. M. Hopkins, Wallace Stevens, A. R. Ammons, Geoffrey Hill and others as sites for a kind of contemplative reading that phenomenology can make precise. Delivered in its original form as the prestigious Gifford Lectures, Lands of Likeness is a revelatory meditation on contemplation for the modern world"--

Hart's eight collection of poems, Barefoot draws on Christianity and the rich heritage of American Blues, creating a blend of religious poetry and love poetry.

Religious poetry has often been regarded as minor poetry and dismissed in large part because poetry is taken to require direct experience; whereas religious poetry is taken to be based on faith, that is, on second or third hand experience. The best methods of thinking about "experience" are given to us by phenomenology. Poetry and Revelation is the first study of religious poetry through a phenomenological lens, one that works with the distinction between manifestation (in which everything is made manifest) and revelation (in which the mystery is re-veiled as well as revealed). Providing a phenomenological investigation of a wide range of “religious poems”, some medieval, some modern; some written in English, others written in European languages; some from America, some from Britain, and some from Australia, Kevin Hart provides a unique new way of thinking about religious poetry and the nature of revelation itself.

Focusing on the interplay between deconstruction and theology, Kevin Hart challenges the notion that deconstruction opposes theological thought. He argues instead that deconstruction interrogates the metaphysical foundations of theology, emphasizing the significance of mystical theology as a form of nonmetaphysical theology. This work provides a nuanced perspective on how these philosophical frameworks engage with religious concepts.

Superstar comedian and Hollywood box office star Kevin Hart turns his immense talent to the written word by writing some words. Some of those words include: the, a, for, above, and even even. Put them together and you have the funniest, most heartfelt, and most inspirational memoir on survival, success, and the importance of believing in yourself since Old Yeller. It begins in North Philadelphia. He was born an accident, unwanted by his parents. His father was a drug addict who was in and out of jail. His brother was a crack dealer and petty thief. And his mother was overwhelmingly strict, beating him with belts, frying pans, and his own toys. The odds, in short, were stacked against our young hero, just like the odds that are stacked against the release of a new book in this era of social media (where Hart has a following of over 100 million, by the way). But Kevin Hart, like Ernest Hemingway, JK Rowling, and Chocolate Droppa before him, was able to defy the odds and turn it around. In his literary debut, he takes the reader on a journey through what his life was, what it is now, and how he's overcome each challenge to become the man he is today. And that man happens to be the biggest comedian in the world, with tours that sell out football stadiums and films that have collectively grossed over $3.5 billion. He achieved this not just through hard work, determination, and talent: It was through his unique way of looking at the world. Because just like a book has chapters, Hart sees life as a collection of chapters that each person gets to write for himself or herself. "Not only do you get to choose how you interpret each chapter, but your interpretation writes the next chapter," he says. "So why not choose the interpretation that serves your life the best?" Candid, wickedly funny, and unforgettable, I Can't Make This Up is more than a memoir. It is a training manual designed to teach you a positive, drama-free outlook on life and code of conduct that will serve you, serve others, and serve your biggest, boldest dreams

A curated selection of Kevin Hart's poetry, this compilation showcases his finest works drawn from eight distinct collections. The poems reflect a range of themes and emotions, highlighting Hart's unique voice and mastery of language.

The book presents a novel phenomenology of religion, challenging the continuity between ethics and religion as established by philosophers like Husserl, Heidegger, Marion, and Lacoste. It argues for a distinct separation between the two, offering a fresh perspective on how religious experience can diverge from ethical considerations. Through this exploration, the author reexamines foundational concepts in phenomenology and invites readers to reconsider the interplay between faith and moral philosophy.
