Transcendence and Beyond poses the classical questions of
transcendence in a postmodern setting. Do we need a transcendence
that is ever more beyond or should we put transcendence behind us
altogether? Is it the case that, when seen in a postmodern light,
transcendence must be itself transcended? In this thought-provoking
volume, Jean-Luc Marion, Gianni Vattimo, and a distinguished group
of international philosophers and theologians interrogate
transcendence for today s philosophy of religion. The essays
gathered here examine notions of transcendence to assess its
relevance and meaning in a postmodern context as well as to
determine how it might be usefully refitted. Various subthemes,
such as creation, love, religious language, the question of the
impossible and that of becoming, emerge with a new definition of
transcendence. Poised at the intersection of philosophy and
religion, these reflections provide a benchmark for renewed
consideration of this classic philosophical and religious
theme."
