This book brings together a selection of Kevin Corrigan's works
published over the course of some 27 years. Its predominant theme
is the encounter with otherness in ancient, medieval and modern
thought and it ranges in scope from the Presocratics-through Plato,
Aristotle, Plotinus and the late ancient period, on the one hand,
and early Christian thought, especially Gregory of Nyssa, Augustine
and, much later, Aquinas, on the other. Among the key questions
examined are the relation between faith and reason; the nature of
creation and insight, being and existence; literature, philosophy
and the invention of the novel; personal, human and divine
identity; the problem of evil (particularly here in Dostoevsky's
adaptation of a Platonic perspective); the character of ideas
themselves; women saints in the early Church; love of God and love
of neighbor; the development of Christian Trinitarian thinking; the
strange notion of philosophy as prayer; and the mind/soul-body
relation.
