John D. Caputo: The Collected Philosophical and Theological Papers: Volume 5: 2005-2007: Coming Out as a Theologian (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781737312758)

Volume 5: Coming out as a Theologian collects the papers published by Caputo during his first years in the Syracuse University Religion Department when, as Catherine Keller said, he "came out of the closet as a theologian"-a "weak" or "radical" theologian, nothing confessional or denominational. Caputo here puts deconstruction into the service of a "constructive theology" of the "event" in a series of lively essays, including several previously unpublished pieces, while also engaging the work of T. J. J. Altizer, Ted Jennings, Louis Mackey, Jean-Luc Marion, Calvin Schrag, Mark Taylor, Merold Westphal, David Wood, and Edith Wyschogrod.
