<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>In the third book in the trilogy that includes Reduction and Givenness and Being Given. Marion renews his argument for a phenomenology of givenness, with penetrating analyses of the phenomena of event, idol, flesh, and icon. Turning explicitly to hermeneutical dimensions of the debate, Marion masterfully draws together issues emerging from his close reading of Descartes and Pascal, Husserl and Heidegger, Levinas and Henry. Concluding with a revised version of his response to Derrida, In the Name: How to Avoid Speaking of It, Marion powerfully re-articulates the theological possibilities of phenomenology.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Perspectives in Continental Philosophy, No. 27<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><br><strong>JEAN-LUC MARION</strong> teaches philosophy at the Sorbonne and as John Nuveen Professor at the Divinity School and Department of Philosophy at the University of Chicago.
