{"product_id":"the-appearing-of-god-9780198827146","title":"The Appearing of God","description":"The nine essays in \u003cem\u003eThe Appearing of God\u003c\/em\u003e are situated on the fluid border of philosophy and theology, and follow a path leading from classic modern philosophical discussions of experience to some leading themes in contemporary phenomenology. After an introductory exploration of Kierkegaard's\u003cbr\u003eclassic text that straddles the border between philosophy and theology, the reader is introduced to Husserl's account of perception, with its demonstration that the field of phenomena is wider than that of perceptible entities, allowing phenomena that give themselves primarily to feeling. Husserl's\u003cbr\u003etheory of reduction is then subjected to a critique, which identifies phenomena wholly resistant to reduction. John Paul II's encyclical on \u003cem\u003eFaith and Reason\u003c\/em\u003e elicits a critical rejection of its attempt to reify the boundary between natural and supernatural, the author asserting in its place that love\u003cbr\u003eis the distinguishing mark of the knowledge of God. This theme is continued in a discussion of Heidegger's \u003cem\u003eBeing and Time\u003c\/em\u003e, where a passing reference to Pascal invites interrogation of the work's 'methodological atheism', which is found to leave more room than appears for love of the divine. The next\u003cbr\u003ethree chapters deal with the themes of Anticipation, Gift and Self-Identity, all exploring aspects of a single theme, the relation of present experience to the passage of time, and especially to the future. The final chapter puts that theme, together with the theme of love and knowledge, to the\u003cbr\u003eservice of an enquiry into how theology as an intellectual enterprise relates to the practice of worship.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jean-Yves Lacoste\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/25\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.80h x 5.20w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198827146\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn independent scholar living and working in Paris, \u003cstrong\u003eJean-Yves Lacoste\u003c\/strong\u003e has taught at Universities throughout Europe and the United States, and is a Life Member of Clare Hall, Cambridge.
