Kugel, James. The Great Shift: Encountering God in Biblical Times. Boston and New York: Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2017. Also see Eliade; Farrell; Stanley. For all practical purposes, what Kugel refers to as biblical times represent the ancient Hebrew version of what Ong refers to as the world-as-event sense of life. What Kugel refers to as the great shift represents the shift to what Ong in his 1958 book refers to as the aural-to-visual shift and in his 1969 article as the shift from the world-as-event sense of life to the world-as-view (also known as visualist) sense of life (also exemplified in the philosophical thought of Plato and Aristotle and the subsequent Western tradition of philosophy and the subsequent Western tradition of Christian theology, most notably from the Council of Nicea and the Nicene Creed onward and the formulation of orthodox trinitarian theology).
