The Religious

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This impressive collection takes its lead from the question - "Who comes after the subject?" - posed by Jean-Luc Nancy some years ago and responds to similar questions of "Who comes after the God of metaphysics?" and "What becomes of God and of religious faith after the 'first cause' has been shown the door?" To answer these questions, The Religious offers landmark texts from Kierkegaard, Heidegger, Levinas, Derrida, and Irigaray, excerpts from the famous debate between Jean-Luc Marion and Dominique Janicaud, and ten original selections, some of which include coverage of feminist theology. This volume is an ideal text for advanced undergraduates and graduate students in the philosophy of religion.

Rezensionen

"In this collection, the most innovative contemporary continentalphilosophers speak out about the ways in which religion must berethought after the end of metaphysics. Can phenomenology in an ageof the hyperreal provide an account of what cannot be seen? Is itpossible to forge a link between the death of the modern subjectand the question of God? Challenging theological complacency, theserich and complex essays do not simply discuss the demise ofontotheology but reinvigorate its classical issues by seeing themin the light of otherness, interruption, and sexual difference."Edith Wyschogrod, Rice University.

"An indespensable collection for current poststructuralist andpostmodern philosophical and theological discussions." ReligiousStudies Review, Vol 29, October 2003
