After the subject" and beyond Heideggerian ontology, Marion
suggests, there is the sheer givenness of phenomena without
condition. In theology, this liberation means rethinking God in
terms of phenomena such as love, gift, and excess. In addition to
an important essay by Marion, "The Reason of the Gift," and a
dialogue between Marion and Richard Kearney, this book contains
stimulating essays by ten other contributors: Lilian Alweiss, Eoin
Cassidy, Mark Dooley, Brian Elliott, Ian Leask, Shane Mackinlay,
Derek Morrow, John O'Donohue, Joseph S. O'Leary, and Felix O
Murchadha.

The Taylor Effect presents an original and diverse collection of
essays addressing Charles Taylor's magisterial A Secular Age.
Ranging from close and critical readings of Taylor's formulations
and suppositions; to comparative studies of Taylor and various
'interlocutors'; to applied approaches utilizing Taylor's concepts;
to explorations launched from a Taylorian foundation; the 13
chapters comprise a multifaceted exploration of Taylor's
multifaceted achievement. Given the vast, synoptic sweep of
Taylor's magnum opus, the contributors represent a suitably diverse
range of interests, backgrounds and expertise-members of
departments of philosophy, literature, philosophical theology,
systematic theology, moral theology, education, and political
science, whose interests stretch from Plato to Girard, phronesis to
pedagogy, Deism to dogmatics, medical ethics to aesthetics...
Accordingly, The Taylor Effect is not only one of the first major
responses to A Secular Age: the astonishing breadth as well as the
quality of contributions will ensure that it remains a central
reference point in any future discussion of Taylor's work.
