The second season of Overmorrow’s Library is dedicated to world-building, world-ending, and travel across worlds. Federico Campagna presents a new selection of books that might help us to appreciate the fragility of ‘worlds’, and the art of creating new ones through a particular use of our imagination. Art theory meets theology, anthropology and ‘perennial’ metaphysics: Ananda K. Coomaraswamy’s brief but powerful ‘The Christian and Oriental Philosophy of Art’.
