three sences/ dimensions of transcendence

Immanent Frame blog van Craig Calhoun

- self transformation
- the transcendence of the self embodied in commitment and connection to others
- active participation in history, transformations in which we may participate

Compare the three dimensions of transcendence of Luckmann 1991 in: “Shrinking Transcendence, Expanding Religion”.

- the experiences of the “little” spatial and temporal transcendences of everyday life,
- the “intermediate” transcendences of fellow human beings,
- the “great” transcendences of life and death” (Luckmann 1990: 127)
