Kierkegaard and the Refusal of Transcendence

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Kierkegaard and the Refusal of Transcendence challenges the standard view that Kierkegaard's God is infinitely other than the world. It argues that his work immerses us in the paradoxical nature of existence itself, and opposes any flight into another world.

Rezensionen

"This is the latest addition to the Radical Theologies series, which 'is dedicated to redefining the very terms of theology as a concept and practice'. ... Shakespeare offers us a more demanding but positive insight into how such an iconic theologian can be creatively filtered through the prism of 'radical theology'." (Dr. John Saxbee, Church Times, June, 2016)
