Following Derrida's treatment of Nancy, Cassidy-Deketelaere thinks 'after' the theological turn by deconstructing phenomenology's inherent theological structure which made that turn possible; starting from the theological turn, this book seeks to move beyond it, that is, to 'de-theologise' phenomenology. This approach parallels Nancy's engagement with Christianity: drawing on Paul's kenosis - according to which God empties himself of his divinity in the Incarnation - Nancy understands Christianity as deconstructing or de-theologising itself. \u003cbr\u003eWritten in elegant and clear prose, this volume clarifies the phenomenological and theological consequences of one the most influential modern thinkers' philosophy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48833515126989,"sku":"9781350512078","price":115.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0557\/1529\/9533\/files\/imageloader_8a4e3f77-ae49-4f03-9f75-c8e0229bd52d.jpg?v=1790887488","url":"https:\/\/booksatmidnight.com\/products\/jean-luc-nancy-after-the-theological-turn","provider":"Books At Midnight","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
