Uskrsnuće: upute za uporabu

Rate this book
Jedan od najbriljantnijih mislilaca našega vremena, Fabrice Hadjadj, u ovoj izvanrednoj
knjizi propituje događaj i fenomen Kristova uskrsnuća pitajući sebe i nas: mijenja li Uskrsnuće način na koji se odnosimo prema svijetu, način na koji pristupamo svakomu novom danu i živimo ga? Podrobno obrađujući niz tema i temeljeći ih na susretima s Uskrslim onako kako ih je zabilježilo Sveto pismo, Hadjadj pokazuje kako život uskrsloga Krista izravno zadire u naš život i trajno nas preobražava.
Način na koji se uskrsli Krist ukazuje ima u sebi nešto zbunjujuće: veliku jednostavnost. Fabrice Hadjadj u ovoj knjizi ne propušta upravo to naglasiti te svojim dubokim, lucidnim i duhovitim promišljanjima konkretno pokazuje kako živjeti tu jednostavnost uskrsnuća preobražujući u njegovu svjetlu odnose s drugima, vlastiti poziv, odnos prema hrani, novcu, kućanskim poslovima, Svetomu pismu, milosrđu, vjeri, ljubavi, spolnosti…
Ovaj novi pogled poziva nas da vidimo Božje otkupljenje na djelu ovdje i sada i da iskusimo kraljevstvo nebesko i njegovu jednostavnost u vlastitoj svakodnevici i svakomu djeliću svojega života.

"Posljednja lekcija Utjelovljene Riječi bila je u činjenju jednostavnih čina da se tako učenici nauče ne gledati više njega, nego vidjeti sve stvari u njemu i prepoznati njegovu slavu koja izranja svagdje u svakodnevici."

I was alerted to this little book by a fantastic quote about how God surrounds us like a mother:


God envelops us so thoroughly that we almost have good reason to think that he does not exist (and, in fact, he does not exist in the same way as creatures do). ... The fetus does not see his mother; and if he can think that he has no mother, it is just because everything is a sign of of her presence, because she is present everywhere–and not only somewhere inside her belly.


It took a long time to get a hold of this book, translated as it was from French and only available online as an e-book (and with a kind of weird cover I must say), but with the help of my librarian friend we tracked it down, and I'm here to say it was worth it. The whole book is like that quote.


Hadjadj is a French Catholic philosopher with six kids -- so I "get" his life -- and he meets the challenge of portraying deep, paradoxical theology in ordinary language as well as anyone since C.S. Lewis. This stands out against the modern "default deism" thinking and shows how faith brings the world alive. Particularly, a whole section on how you should preach to your mobile phone like St. Francis preached to the birds stood out to me.


One of Hadjadj's main points is that God is present in the ordinary, making it extraordinary. His book takes ordinary language and metaphors and makes them extraordinary as well, so you could describe this book as a fruit of the resurrection down to its very style. Wonderful, profound stuff here.

Come mai i libri di Hadjadj mi attirano sempre ma poi non riesco mai a finirli? È uno scrittore brillante, forse TROPPO BRILLANTE! Mi trovo a dover fare uno sforzo per mantenere l'attenzione sulle cose, anche interessanti, che dice e non farmi distrarre dai continui colpi di arguzia.

Arrancavo già da un po', così quando sono arrivato al capitolo "A corto di fiato", l'ho preso come un invito e l'ho mollato.

Vedi, Hadjadj, qui in Italia, quando uno si sforza tanto di fare il brillante, o c'è di mezzo una ragazza, oppure sta cercando di rifilare una bufala. Magari in Francia non funziona così.

Every time I felt I was getting lost in philosophical-type ramblings, all of a sudden there was something very concrete, very ordinary, raised up from human to divine via the incarnation. Housework, eating -- even using the restroom, for goodness' sake!

My second read of this book only reassures me that a third will be very worthwhile. When this book is good, it's phenomenal!

Ho già letto di Fabrice Hadjadj Ultime notizie dall'uomo & dalla donna: Cronache di una fine annunciata da poco e non mi ha molto convinto, anche perchè si tratta di una raccolta di editoriali in cui le sue idee, a volte buone, si ripetono troppo spesso.
Ho deciso di riprovare con questo libro e non sono rimasto deluso: idee intelligenti dette in modo intelligente (a volte troppo magari!), con una prospettiva laica sulla vita cristiana e sul messaggio dei Vangeli.
Piacevole lettura, a volte un po' troppo leggera, da un autore forse troppo innamorato della propria arguzia.

Pequeno livro com algumas reflexões sobre o que, no entender do autor, deverá significar a Ressurreição de Cristo para um crente contemporâneo que encare a sua Fé com seriedade.

Algumas das reflexões trazem pontos de vista surpreendentes e desafiadores, sendo o foco na maravilha que deve ser o quotidiano refrescante. Dito isto, as reflexões não têm todas a mesma qualidade, havendo uma certa inconsistência lógica em algumas delas. Uma certa aversão ao mundo moderno representado pela evolução tecnológica também impede que estas reflexões tenham toda a utilidade que poderiam de outro modo ter.

Good

A book worth reading. As usual Hadjadj displays all his capacity for brilliant insights and intellectual gymnastics. Still, I preferred his "How to Evangelize Today", as it seemed more coherent and less facetious. Hadjadj defends himself against the latter in his epilogue in an honest and almost convincing way. Whatever be the case, well worth reading (if you can read French.)

Zanimiva knjiga s svežimi interpretacijami, posrečen pa je tudi tajming, ko sem jo bral. A to gotovo ni knjiga za vsakogar: konservativnejše bralce zna zmotiti, da se posvečene vstajenjske teme avtor loteva s humorjem, prvržencem modernih evangelizacijskih metod pa se bo knjiga morda zdela premalo radikalna -- nima namreč zabavnih barvnih ilustracij.

Fresh. He has some very fresh interpretations, some chapters though were dragging a bit

Simplemente me ha encantado. Un libro muy ameno y cómodo para leer. Tiene muchísima profundidad y al mismo tiempo aterriza mucho las cosas.

Unusually brilliant and sublimely subversive. Hadjadj twists and turns your well intended but ill conceived notions, leaving them shapely and right side up. With crystalline metaphors, similes and ensnaring embodied reflections. Chesterton-like. Marvellous and must-read again.
