Book Description
Nazaré, Portugal. La mer. Un village. Des falaises. Des oiseaux qui tournoient dans le ciel. Des barques posées sur le sable comme de gros insectes endormis. Un homme seul, sur la plage, un homme que l'existence n'a pas épargné, et que la déchéance a peu à peu brisé, un homme qui n'espère plus rien de la vie. Pourtant, au moment où il s'y attend le moins, sa rencontre avec un goéland va modifier le cours de son existence. C'est une histoire dépouillée dans laquelle les protagonistes se font rares, mais où le spirituel l'emporte sur le matériel. Entrez dans l'histoire de Jorge et suivez-le au gré des embruns et des courants de cette mer dont il ne peut se défaire. Laissez-vous entraîner dans la tourmente de la vie de ce solitaire qui trouvera, enfin, au bout du compte, la délivrance.

Questioning God
Author: John D. CaputoPublisher: Indiana University Press
ISBN: 0253108675
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 393
Book Description
Jacques Derrida and other scholars explore postmodern thinking about God and consider the nature of forgiveness in relation to the paradoxes of the gift. In fifteen insightful essays, Jacques Derrida and an international group of scholars explore the implications of deconstruction for religion, focusing on two topics: God and forgiveness. Among the themes addressed by contributors are the possibilities of imagining God as unthinkable, imagining God as nonpatriarchal, imagining a return to Augustine, and imagining an age in which praise is far more important than narrative. Questioning God moves readers beyond the parameters of metaphysical reason and modernist rationality as it attempts to think the questions of God and forgiveness in a postmodernist context. Contributors include John D. Caputo, Jacques Derrida, Mark Dooley, Francis Schüssler Fiorenza, Robert Gibbs, Jean Greisch, Kevin Hart, Richard Kearney, Cleo McNelly Kearns, John Milbank, Regina M. Schwartz, Michael J. Scanlon, and Graham Ward. “What sets this work apart from the majority of other publications on the subject of postmodern theology and prevents it from descending into a sanctimonious hagiography of Derrida’s genius is the presence among the contributors of Graham Ward and John Milbank, two of the founding members of the movement known as radical orthodoxy. This present work is the first to document supporters of radical orthodoxy critically engaging with proponents of Derridean deconstruction.” —Perspectives

Perjury and Pardon, Volume I

ISBN: 0226819183
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 355
Book Description
An inquiry into the problematic of perjury, or lying, and forgiveness from one of the most influential philosophers of the twentieth century. “One only ever asks forgiveness for what is unforgivable.” From this contradiction begins Perjury and Pardon, a two-year series of seminars given by Jacques Derrida at the École des hautes études en sciences sociales in Paris in the late 1990s. In these sessions, Derrida focuses on the philosophical, ethical, juridical, and political stakes of the concept of responsibility. His primary goal is to develop what he calls a “problematic of lying” by studying diverse forms of betrayal: infidelity, denial, false testimony, perjury, unkept promises, desecration, sacrilege, and blasphemy. Although forgiveness is a notion inherited from multiple traditions, the process of forgiveness eludes those traditions, disturbing the categories of knowledge, sense, history, and law that attempt to circumscribe it. Derrida insists on the unconditionality of forgiveness and shows how its complex temporality destabilizes all ideas of presence and even of subjecthood. For Derrida, forgiveness cannot be reduced to repentance, punishment, retribution, or salvation, and it is inseparable from, and haunted by, the notion of perjury. Through close readings of Kant, Kierkegaard, Shakespeare, Plato, Jankélévitch, Baudelaire, and Kafka, as well as biblical texts, Derrida explores diverse notions of the “evil” or malignancy of lying while developing a complex account of forgiveness across different traditions.
