<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><b>Against traditional approaches that view German Idealism as a secularizing movement, this volume revisits it as the first fundamentally philosophical articulation of the political-theological problematic in the aftermath of the Enlightenment and the advent of secularity.</b><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Featuring scholars at the forefront of contemporary political theology and the study of German Idealism, <i>Nothing Absolute</i> explores the intersection of these two flourishing fields. Against traditional approaches that view German Idealism as a secularizing movement, this volume revisits it as the first fundamentally philosophical articulation of the political-theological problematic in the aftermath of the Enlightenment and the advent of secularity. <p/><i>Nothing Absolute</i> reclaims German Idealism as a political-theological trajectory. Across the volume's contributions, German thought from Kant to Marx emerges as crucial for the genealogy of political theology and for the ongoing reassessment of modernity and the secular. By investigating anew such concepts as immanence, utopia, sovereignty, theodicy, the Earth, and the world, as well as the concept of political theology itself, this volume not only rethinks German Idealism and its aftermath from a political-theological perspective but also demonstrates what can be done with (or against) German Idealism using the conceptual resources of political theology today. <p/><b>Contributors: </b> Joseph Albernaz, Daniel Colucciello Barber, Agata Bielik-Robson, Kirill Chepurin, S. D. Chrostowska, Saitya Brata Das, Alex Dubilet, Vincent Lloyd, Thomas Lynch, James Martel, Steven Shakespeare, Oxana Timofeeva, Daniel Whistler</p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p>"Did German Idealism introduce the death of God and disclose the space-time of radical immanence, or is it rather the pivotal moment for the development of political theology in late modernity? This exciting collection of essays offers new insights into this perplexing question for both philosophy and theology."--Miguel Vatter, Flinders University <p/>"This volume, full of precise, incisive, and deeply researched scholarship, situates the problematic of political theology within a series of questions that emerge within German Idealist philosophy, from Kant to Marx. This is an original and necessary contribution to the growing field of political theology. As evinced in this volume, German Idealism and its intellectual heirs in critical theory, Marxism, and cultural theory are an important, perhaps even necessary place to ground the contemporary critiques of the global capitalist order of racial, gendered, and biopolitical oppression."--Joshua Ramey, Haverford College <p/>Featuring scholars at the forefront of contemporary political theology and the study of German Idealism, <i>Nothing Absolute</i> explores the intersection of these two flourishing fields.
