John Wesley, my postmodern albeit virtual identity mentor: where quantum physics meet John Wesley (en Inglés)
Reseña del libro "John Wesley, my postmodern albeit virtual identity mentor: where quantum physics meet John Wesley (en Inglés)"
John Wesley postmodern? John Wesley a virtual identity? What does John Wesley have to do with quantum physics? All questions pregnant with explosive meaning, if not with radical contradictions, or is it just about how one looks at it, thus being postmodern, being relative, being rhetorical? The most straightforward is that John Wesley can be the author's mentor, but which John Wesley is his mentor? When the author sets out to let John Wesley be his mentor, and let John Wesley explain himself, can it but a virtual identity of John Wesley since John Wesley can be nothing but a (cognitive) social construction? A simulacrum? Differently put, John Wesley always stays before the author, since meeting John Wesley is also to 'invent'/construct John Wesley. This reduction has far researching implications, since this means that there are many John Wesleys out there, and many long 18th centuries, since there are many simulacra around, and in the case of John Wesley Virtual Identities and Virtual Profiles. By this the author also radically challenges the Wesley tradition(s), each working with a particular virtual identity of John Wesley, but who has the real John Wesley, if any? Still putting it differently, this book is both an autobiography of the author and John Wesley, the by proxy invented John Wesley. Quantum physics is exactly the seedbed putting this premises forward.
