LANGUAGE, DESIRE, AND THEOLOGY: A GENEALOGY OF THE WILL TO SPEAK

Noelle Vahanian

"This book develops a new theological approach to language in the light of contemporary critical theory." "Informed by the contemporary discourses in continental philosophy of, among others, Gilles Deleuze, Roland Barthes, Jacques Derrida, and Julia Kristeva, the author engages with secular theological thought and provides detailed readings of several major theological and philosophical sources. These include Plato, Aristotle, Augustine, Avicenna, Aquinas, Luther, Francis Bacon, Descartes, Berkeley, Hume, Kant, Kierkegaard, and Camus." "This book will be of interest to theologians and philosophers."--Jacket.
