- W2181782570 abstract "The paper highlights the principles of naive world perception by Christian people. On first appearances solitude might strike us as loneliness, egoism, narcissism, selfsufficiency. But by reading Thomas Merton (1915-1968) we may find the opposite. Contrary to what many believe, it is a way of fighting loneliness and self-sufficiency. The article further shows that Merton in his views on solitude is in tune with prominent critiques of modernity in 19 th century philosophy. However, while Ludwig Feuerbach criticizes modernity from a societal or philosophical perspective, Merton‟s perspective is religious. According to Feuerbach and Merton, to cultivate solitude is to be in relation to others. In Merton‟s case it has to do with becoming a fully-integrated monk. In Feuerbach‟s case it has to do with opposing the Christian concept of the individual, as he perceives it, in order to become a person through loving relationships with others. It might be argued that Merton is nurturing the self-sufficiency of the monk which is exactly the target of Feuerbach‟s criticism of Christianity. Merton‟s recipe is a philosophy of solitude aiming not at loneliness but at unity with mankind and a deeper sense of „community‟." @default.
