{"product_id":"god-without-being-jean-luc-marion-9780226505657","title":"God Without Being: Hors-Texte, Second Edition","description":"\u003cp\u003e Jean-Luc Marion is one of the world's foremost philosophers of religion as well as one of the leading Catholic thinkers of modern times. In \u003ci\u003eGod Without Being\u003c\/i\u003e, Marion challenges a fundamental premise of traditional philosophy, theology, and metaphysics: that God, before all else, must be. Taking a characteristically postmodern stance and engaging in passionate dialogue with Heidegger, he locates a \"God without Being\" in the realm of \u003ci\u003eagape\u003c\/i\u003e, or Christian charity and love. If God is love, Marion contends, then God loves before he actually is.\u003c\/p\u003eFirst translated into English in 1991, \u003ci\u003eGod Without Being\u003c\/i\u003e continues to be a key book for discussions of the nature of God. This second edition contains a new preface by Marion as well as his 2003 essay on Thomas Aquinas. Offering a controversial, contemporary perspective, \u003ci\u003eGod Without Being\u003c\/i\u003e will remain essential reading for scholars and students of philosophy and religion. \"Daring and profound. . . . In matters most central to his thesis, [Marion]'s control is admirable, and his attunement to the nuances of other major postmodern thinkers is impressive.\"--\u003ci\u003eTheological Studies\u003c\/i\u003e \"A truly remarkable work.\"--\u003ci\u003eFirst Things\u003c\/i\u003e \"Very rewarding reading.\"--\u003ci\u003eReligious Studies Review\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jean-Luc Marion\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0226505650\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780226505657\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Chicago Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/01\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 344\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.50w x 0.90d","brand":"Jean-Luc Marion","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43981509656831,"sku":"9780226505657","price":37.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8c83347d-afbc-4651-a9e1-7790790e1ee8.jpg?v=1683256003","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/god-without-being-jean-luc-marion-9780226505657","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
