The Point of Origin investigates the evolution of religious consciousness as an integral reality in the human person. The evolution of religious consciousness is an experience found throughout human history beginning with the earliest known human species, the Cro-Magnon. In this work Br. Thomas identifies empirical data that lends itself to his theory that spirituality is not a bi-product of the human phenomena but an essential characteristic of being human. The author delves into conscious acknowledgement of the natural law as a universal norm guiding human activity in the wake of the plurality of religious expressions (Atheism, Buddhism, Christianity, Islam, etc.). In a crescendo effect of his work Br. Thomas illustrates how mysticism becomes the ultimate expression of religious consciousness in the human experience.

"While, from the outside, Joyce studies might appear monolithic, from within, it is manifold, divergent, and lively. The sixteen essays in this volume indicate an expanded and interconnected conversation that brings into relation hitherto distant locales and types of criticism. Taking European, African, Latin American, trans-continental and global perspectives, these essays work within and between a range of critical approaches and vantage points. Many of them engage in new ways with the discussions of Irish history and politics begun by in the mid-nineties by scholars such as Emer Nolan, Vincent J. Cheng, Marjorie Howes, and Derek Attridge. These historical and political concerns have continued to bear fruit in recent years, as evidenced by works by Cheng, Luke Gibbons, and Andrew Gibson. Several of the essays in this volume bring these concerns into relation with issues such as queerness, race, and transnational literary relations. Others examine issues of composition and publication, copyright law, translation, and the history of modernist criticism"--
