This book's theological and philosophical construction of a God of
enjoyment poetically remaps divine love. Posing a critique to the
Aristotelian unmoved mover whose intellective enjoyment is
self-enclosed, this book's affective tones depict a passionate God
who intermingles with the cosmos to suffer and yearn out of love
even improper love.
Divine Enjoyment leads the reader to a path of excess, first in the
form of an intellective appetite that for Aquinas places God beyond
the divine self, then more erotically in the silhouette of a lover
whose love is like the delectable pain of mystics. Culminating with
banqueting, fiesta, and carnival, the book deterritorializes God's
affect, conceiving of an expansively hospitable enjoyment stemming
from many life forms
With a renewed welcome for pleasure, the book also upholds a
disruptive ethic. Ultimately, an immoderate God of love whose
passionate enjoyment stems from the sufferings as well as joys of
the cosmos offers another paradigm of lovingly enjoying oneself in
relationship with passionate becomings that belong to many others.
