In Excess: Studies of Saturated Phenomena is the third book in Jean-Luc Marion's phenomenological trilogy, which includes Reduction and Givenness and Being Given. Marion renews his argument for a phenomenology of givenness, with penetrating analyses of the phenomena of event, idol, flesh, and icon. With an eye turned more explicitly than ever before to hermeneutical dimensions of the debate, Marion masterfully draws together issues emerging from his close reading of Descartes and Pascal, Husserl and Heidegger, Levinas and Henry. Concluding with a revised version of his response to Derrida, "In the Name: How to Avoid Speaking of It," Marion powerfully rearticulates the theological possibilities of phenomenology. Flowing at a breathtaking pace, In Excess is Marion writing at his very best and readily illustrates why he has been described as one of the world's most important living philosophers.
