In urban medieval Europe, seculars were uncloistered persons who carried their spiritual passion and sense of an obligated life into daily circumambulations of the city. Seculars lived in the city, on behalf of the city, but-contrary to the new profit economy of the time-with a different locus of value: spirit.Betcher argues that for seculars today the possibility of a devoted life, the practice of felicity in history, still remains. Spirit now names a necessary "prosthesis," a locus for regenerating the elemental commons of our interdependent flesh and thus for cultivating spacious and fearless empathy, forbearance, and generosity.Her theological poetics, though based in Christianity, are frequently in conversation with other religions resident in our postcolonial cities. 001477582 538__ $$aMode of access: Internet via World Wide Web. 001477582 546__ $$aIn English. 001477582 5880_ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from PDF title page (publisher's Web site, viewed 03.
