Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Exploring the intersection of philosophy and theology, the book revisits key figures like Husserl, Heidegger, Augustine, and Derrida to examine the complexities of discussing God through language. James K. A. Smith emphasizes the necessity of words to reveal the divine, proposing a transformative "incarnational phenomenology" that highlights God's love as a means to convey deeper truths. This approach invites a fresh understanding of theology in relation to the arts, suggesting that even imperfect expressions can point to the infinite.
