5.0 out of 5 stars This book was *way* ahead of its time..., June 10, 2006

This review is from: Altarity (Paperback)
First published in 1987, Mark C. Taylor's _Altarity_ endeavors to "rethink the difference and otherness that lie 'beyond absolute knowing'" (xxvii). Taylor's constant reference to Hegel ties a thread between his meditations on Heidegger, Merleau-Ponty, Lacan, Bataille, Kristeva, Levinas, Blanchot, Derrida, and interestingly, Kierkegaard. This book is, in my opinion, way ahead of its time in terms of the topics and controversies discussed. We are still involved in these debates, and Taylor's _Altarity_ is an excellent contribution to contemporary philosophical, ethical, and religous thought.
