This book is a timely introduction in English to one of the most
wide-ranging and imaginative philosophical projects of the last
fifty years. It offers close readings of the main themes of Michel
Henry's philosophy, a philosophy that has produced some of the most
devastating critiques of phenomenology, Freudianism, and Marxism in
this period. The author's contrasting of Henry's material
phenomenology with Derridean deconstruction extends the range of
recent critical theory in terms of embodiment and affectivity. In
an age of rejuvenated evangelism and fundamentalism, the author's
reading of Henry's later work on religion as an extension of his
material phenomenology also presents a challenging examination of
the foundations of Christian faith and belief. Presented in a clear
and straightforward manner, with careful explication of the more
difficult passages from Henry, this book also makes accessible to
English readers, for the first time since their original
publication, many of the texts central to Henry's phenomenology. It
should be a welcome resource for researchers in the fields of
French phenomenology and the phenomenology of religion.
