75 years of Paidós

The sacred texts of the main monotheist religions, despite their great antiquity, continue to influence current thinking. Karen Armstrong (United Kingdom) is the author of over 25 books, translated into 40 languages, about the history of religions and faith, particularly Christianity, Judaism and Islam. In 2017 she was awarded the Princess of Asturias Award for Social Sciences, and is currently a member of the High-Level Group of the UN Alliance of Civilisations. Her latest book is The Lost Art of Scripture. Rescuing the Sacred Texts, in which she talks about the role of sacred texts in a world that often rejects religion. In conversation with Iñaki Gabilondo.
