This study offers a new and original analysis of the problem of
religious language. Taking as its starting point Karl Barth's
doctrine of analogy, it places this doctrine within the context of
German Sprache and Rede philosophies and reveals the historical
links between them and the work of the philosophers Emmanuel
Levinas and Jacques Derrida. Drawing out the parallels between this
work and Barth's insights into the language of theology, it
concludes that Barth's doctrine of analogy is a theological reading
of Derrida's economy of difference. This important contemporary
interpretation of Karl Barth reveals his closeness to postmodern
thinking and underlines his relevance to current debates on the
language of theology. It will be of interest to those studying both
general questions of theology and language and the particular
relationship between theology and postmodernism.
