Bücher der Reihe Reframing Continental Philosophy of Religion

This concise yet thorough summary of 20th century continental thought explores research questions that are relevant to contemporary developments in the fields of continental philosophy and political theology, wrestling with the implications of entering a post-secular epoch in both fields.

This volume analyses the possibilities and limits of Lacanian theory when it comes to studying non-European religions and explores how Lacan can renew our approach to non-European "religious" beliefs. It examines the ways in which Lacan helps us to distance ourselves from the psychical/psychological effects of the universal drive of capitalism.

This volume takes a multi-disciplinary approach to continental philosophy of religion, engaging with philosophy, theology, religious studies, anthropology, cultural studies, and new religious movements, to explore patterns of mind and mortality, existence and ecstasy, creativity and expression, political possibility and religious matrix.

Offering new insight into the pertinence of Simone Weil's thought, this volume situates her in the Continental discourses which constituted her philosophical background, her milieu, and which frequently reflected her departures from her contemporaries.
