<p><b><i>Tangle of Matter &amp; Ghost: Leonard Cohen's Post-Secular Songbook of Mysticism(s) Jewish &amp; beyond</i> analyzes the lyrical poetry of Leonard Cohen through a post-secular lens.&#160;</b></p><p>The volume fuses sophisticated theory and popular culture with critical analysis that is lacking in most of the rock n&#8217; roll biographies about Leonard Cohen. How does this mystical maestro&#8217;s songbook emerge to illuminate questions of meaning making in a post-secular context when correlated with thinkers like Charles Taylor Edward S. Casey Jurgen Habermas Slavoj &#381;i&#382;ek Jeffrey Kripal and Harold Bloom along with others. Cohen&#8217;s mysticism is also analyzed in relationship to Kabbalah Hasidism and Rinzai Buddhism. <i>Tangle of Matter &amp; Ghost</i> presents a unique inter-disciplinary approach to Jewish philosophy and literary studies with wide appeal for diverse audiences and readership.</p>
