One of the many challenges for readers of Agamben's sprawling and
heterogeneous body of work is what to make of his increasingly
insistent focus on theology. Agamben's Coming Philosophy brings
together Colby Dickinson, the author of Agamben and Theology, and
Adam Kotsko, the translator of several of Agamben's more recent
theologically-oriented books, to discuss Agamben's unique approach
to theology-and its profound implications for understanding
Agamben's philosophical project and the deepest political and
ethical problems of our time. The book covers the whole range of
Agamben's work, from his earliest reflections to his forthcoming
magnum opus, The Use of Bodies. Along the way, the authors provide
an overview of Agamben's project as a whole, as well as incisive
reflections on individual works and isolated themes. This volume is
essential reading for anyone grappling with Agamben's work. The
theological starting point leads to a thorough examination of
Agamben's methodology, his relationship with his primary sources
(most notably Walter Benjamin), and his relevance for questions of
politics, ethics, and philosophy.
