Description
Summary:Emerging clearly in the 1960s and spreading very rapidly thanks to considerable support in the media, the New Age - which is not as "new" as its name suggests - originated in post-rationalist currents of thought dating from the end of the XIXth century. Comparative philology, religious sciences and Romantic philosophy prepared the ground and defined the guiding themes of this form of monism, which appeared carefully disguised in traditions borrowed from the East. This neo-gnosticism, which has gradually come to represent a new cultural paradigm, is one of the major challenges to Christianity at this millenium's beginning.
