In "Poetry and Apocalypse," Franke seeks to find the premises for
dialogue between cultures, especially religious
fundamentalisms--including Islamic fundamentalism--and modern
Western secularism. He argues that in order to be genuinely open,
dialogue needs to accept possibilities such as religious apocalypse
in ways that can be best understood through the experience of
poetry. Franke reads Christian epic and prophetic tradition as a
secularization of religious revelation that preserves an
understanding of the essentially apocalyptic character of truth and
its disclosure in history. The usually neglected negative theology
that undergirds this apocalyptic tradition provides the key to a
radically new view of apocalypse as at once religious and poetic.
