FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Introducing the thought of philosopher and theologian Jean-Yves Lacoste, this book provides an overview spanning Lacostes earliest works on sacramentality to his latest work Etre en Danger (2011) in which Lacoste opens up the liturgical experience onto a spiritual experience of life. Schrijvers unfolds the logic of what Lacoste calls the liturgical experience from its violent variety in Expérience et Absolu to the logic of love and loves possibility as it is developed in the later works. Throughout the book, the focus is on Lacostes dialogue with Heidegger and through this his attempt to widen the scope of phenomenology to include the phenomenality of the divine.

Review It is impossible in the compass of such a brief review to illustrate the extraordinary care with which Schrijvers analyses Lacostes approach and the sense and implications of his terminology. Even those very familiar with Lacostes work will find here considerable help in elucidating his meaning. So the book can only be described as excellent...

Modern Theology By putting Lacoste in conversation, Schrijvers has made it possible for a wide range of readers to converse with Lacoste, making this introduction as engaging as it is informative.
