Phenomenology and the Holy is a contribution to the phenomenology
of religious experience based on phenomenological philosophy. Its
aim is to overcome the traditionally conceived opposition between
the profane everyday and the total otherness of the holy. This is
carried out by means of a re-reading of Rudolf Otto and, more
significantly, of Edmund Husserl against the backdrop of recent
debates in continental philosophy of religion. By offering an
understanding of the everyday as heterogeneous, inhabited by traces
of the holy, on the one hand, and weakening the otherness of the
holy, on the other, the dissertation attempts to relocate the holy
within the interstices between the alien and familiar. By mapping
the topology of the holy, its historical mediation, its
vulnerability to marginalisation, and its role in the interplay
between ordinary and cultic life, Husserl's phenomenology still
proves to be a fruitful resource in philosophy of religion. Espen
Dahl has worked with phenomenology and ordinary language philosophy
and their relevance for religion. He has studied and taught at the
Faculty of Theology at the University of Oslo.
