5.0 out of 5 stars A Truly New Philosophical Theology, June 1, 2000
This review is from: Capital Times: Tales from the Conquest of Time (Theory Out Of Bounds) (Paperback)
This is an extraorindarily important book, written by a master scholar who is a pure thinker, who here gives us a reenactment of the transformation of post-Classical Western metaphysical and theological thinking culminating in the purely abstract time of our own world. Primary here are Aristotle, Marx, Plotinus, Augustine, and Scotus, but so, too, are drawn forth the metaphysical and theological ground of modern science, modern philosophy, and modern society, with an apocalyptic culmination in the dark night of our nihilism. This is truly new philosophical and theological thinking, and one with deep consequences for all of us.
