39. Islam and Metamodernism (w/ Jared Morningstar)

Jared Morningstar discusses the nexus of metamodernism and the Islamic tradition with me, using his recent essay for Emerge (linked below) as a way into the topic. We explore multi-perspectival approaches to traditionalism, and what it means to integrate its insights in a metamodern context. Jared also brings to bear his knowledge of process thought to the topic.0:00 Introduction1:43 Washing the Heel12:06 Insight from the Past, or Salvaging from the Future?15:45 Attractions to Different Religiosities Based on Biography29:52 Pluralism and Dogma37:10 The Dialectic of Autonomy and Constraint34:52 Ritual and Ontology: Angels46:42 Islam and Process Theology57:23 From Traditional (+ Anti-Modern) to Modern to Postmodern1:12:36 Towards a Metamodern Islam1:18:30 Follow Jared's Work Get full access to Brendan Graham Dempsey at brendangrahamdempsey.substack.com/subscribe
