In dialogue with Derridean deconstruction, this book highlights Nancy's distinctive figurative philosophical style which emerges as a transformative force, one that radicalises differance and draws out its creative potential. Through this generative logic, Nancy reconfigures how we conceptualise Christianity not as an entity apart from philosophical reflection, but as intricately intertwined with it. Ashok Collins offers a bold new perspective on the 'turn to religion' within deconstruction, charting fresh pathways for debate and reflection far beyond its established boundaries.
Ashok Collins is Senior Lecturer in French Studies at the Australian National University. He has published his research in journals such as Research in Phenomenology, French Cultural Studies, Educational Philosophy and Theory and International Journal for Philosophy of Religion.
