Between Faith and Belief

<p><b>A contemporary philosophy of religion that offers a phenomenology of love.</b></p><p>What is to be done at the end of metaphysics? Joeri Schrijvers's contemporary philosophy of religion takes up this question originally posed by Reiner Schürmann and central to continental philosophy. The book navigates the work of thinkers who have addressed such metaphysical concerns including Martin Heidegger Emmanuel Levinas Jean-Luc Nancy Jean-Luc Marion Peter Sloterdijk Ludwig Binswanger Jacques Derrida and more recently John D. Caputo Mary-Jane Rubenstein and Martin Hägglund. Notably Schrijvers engages both those who would deconstruct Christianity and those who remain within this tradition offering an option that is between: between Christianity and atheism between progressive and conservative between faith and belief. Ultimately Schrijvers confronts the end of metaphysics with a phenomenology of love and community arguing for the radical primacy of togetherness.</p>
