This volume was first published by Inter-Disciplinary Press in 2013. Join a truly inter-disciplinary and international community of scholars in their quest to understand a concept critical to human life. Academic studies regarding the nature of hope, literary accounts of a hope that withstands brutal assaults on human dignity, explorations of hope from a religious as well as non-religious worldview, the interrelation between nationalistic and individual hope, all of these studies and many more are found in the current volume. Hope in All Directions is a volume designed for anyone who wishes to gain a more well-rounded understanding of hope as well as one who wishes to concentrate on a particular vision of it. From literature, to history, to film study, to philosophy, to social work, to theology, to pedagogy, to psychology, and, among others, to music, there is a discussion that is sure to whet the palate of almost any reader. If you find hope important, then this volume is essential.
