In The Phenomenology of Religious Belief, the renowned philosopher
Michael J. Shapiro investigates how art - and in particular
literature and film - can impact upon both traditional
interpretations and critical studies of religious beliefs and
experiences. In doing so, he examines the work of prolific and
award-winning writers such as Toni Morrison, Philip K. Dick and
Robert Coover. By placing their work in conjunction with critical
analyses of media by the likes of Ingmar Bergman and Pier Paolo
Pasolini and combining it with the work of groundbreaking thinkers
such as George Canguilhem, Giorgio Agamben and Slavoj Zizek,
Shapiro takes a truly interdisciplinary approach to the question of
how life should be lived. His assessment of phenomenological
subjectivity also leads him to question the nature of political
theology and extend the criticism of Pauline theology.
