Rezensionen

"Secular Messiahs and the Return of Paul's 'Real': A Lacanian Approach is, to conclude, a worthwhile read and deserves a place in the expanding field of Pauline studies. Principe has done us a favor by pulling together many strands of the scholarship and presenting them in a unified manner based upon a Lacanian reading." (Thomas C. Edmondson, Reading Religion, readingreligion.org, July, 2017)
