Description
Cox's interpretation of contemporary culture & theology examines both the loss & reemergence of festivity & fantasy in Western culture. He evaluates both processes from a theological perspective, defining festivity as the capacity for genuine revelry & joyous celebration & defining fantasy as the faculty for envisioning radically alternative life situations. He asserts that both are vital to contemporary life & faith; both are a precondition for genuine social transformation.
