Religion and European Philosophy: Key Thinkers from Kant to Zizek
draws together a diverse group of scholars in theology, religious
studies, and philosophy to discuss the role that religion plays
among key figures in the European philosophical tradition. Designed
for accessibility, each of the thirty-four chapters includes
background information on the key thinker, an overview of the main
themes, concepts, and concerns that occupy his or her attention,
and a discussion of the religious and theological elements present
in his or her thought, in light of contemporary issues. Given the
scope of the volume, Religion and European Philosophy will be the
go-to guide for understanding the religious and theological
dimensions of European philosophy, for both students and
established researchers alike.
'Alain Badiou: Between Theology and Anti-theology' provides one of
the first comprehensive analyses of the relationship between
Badiou's philosophy and theology. Examining the full range of
Badiou's writings, this provocative study explores how Badiou's
philosophy relies on theology even if he claims otherwise and
actively attempts to work against theology. Despite the complex
questions discussed - ranging across ontology, the theory of truth
and the subject, philosophy and its conditions, and anti-philosophy
- this book presents a clear and accessible overview of the
theological, religious and biblical themes which animate Badiou's
philosophy.
