This book argues that identified weaknesses in recent theological
engagement with New Materialism can be successfully addressed by
incorporating insights from Relational Christian Realism. Central
themes are those of the relational and the apophatic as they
represent different but essential strands of a materialist
theology. The relational refers to the work of Deleuze and its
influence upon key New Materialist thinkers such as De Landa,
Bryant, and Braidotti but supplemented from Relational Christian
Realism by Latour and Badiou and with reference to the concept of
the apophatic as found in Keller and Kearney. Examining the
concepts of transcendence, human agency, and a New Enlightenment,
the book moves into more practical areas of aesthetics and
technology concluding with a response to the contemporary
apocalyptic of climate change. Being "beyond in the midst" requires
developing spaces of faithful dissent and holding the tension
between the relational and the apophatic in theology.
