Transcendence and Phenomenology

by Conor Cunningham, Peter Candler

Overview

The Veritas Series brings to market original volumes engaging in critical questions of pressing concern to theologians as well as philosophers, biologists, economists, and representatives of other disciplines. Transcendence and Phenomenology presents a definitive collection of essays discussing the much debated ‘turn to theology’ in philosophy, most evident in phenomenology. Arguably the most pressing debate at the interface of philosophy and theology, this collection of essays makes a significant intervention in the on-going argument, gathering together some of the finest phenomenologists writing today. It also presents major criticisms of phenomenology in relation to theology, especially from John Milbank.
