{"product_id":"awaiting-the-impossible-see-seng-tan-9781666741636","title":"Awaiting the Impossible: A Dialogue with Derrida, Deconstruction, and the Endless Wait for Messiah","description":"This book dialogues with deconstruction's \"religion without religion\" and its implications for theology. In the view of many, deconstruction is a purely nihilistic force bent on the wanton destruction of long-held philosophical, religious, and moral traditions. However, this perspective ignores the fact that deconstruction--in the hands of its standard bearers like Jacques Derrida, John Caputo, and others--has all along been a religious exercise in demythologization. Furnishing a Christian rejoinder to deconstruction's claims about and objections to orthodox religion (and particularly to Christianity), the book addresses the following questions: How can deconstruction open a space for an affirmative faith to occur and be professed? Can deconstruction ever be hospitable toward Jesus of Nazareth as the Messiah for which it waits?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e See Seng Tan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1666741639\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781666741636\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wipf \u0026amp; Stock Publishers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/08\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 150\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.82lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.38d","brand":"See Seng Tan","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48442481475839,"sku":"9781666741636","price":38.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2aa84207-f159-477b-b166-81db15417e52.jpg?v=1777197702","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/awaiting-the-impossible-see-seng-tan-9781666741636","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
