The New Phenomenology: A Philosophical Introduction

Review A rich resource both as a lucid introduction and as a bold interpretation of the thought of Derrida, Levinas, Henry, Marion, and Chrétien as phenomenological "heretics" against the background of Husserl and Heidegger. Careful attention is given to their significance for both the philosophy of religion and the very idea of phenomenology itself. Specific suggestions are made for cross-fertilization between these "continental" thinkers and the "analytic" philosophy of religion, along with proposals for the significance of an essentially descriptive enterprise for normative questions of ethics, politics, and society.Simmons and Benson offer us one of the first attempts to survey efforts in France since the early 1960s to break down the alleged barrier between phenomenology and theology. Of particular interest is a rare and welcome move, late in the book, to connect contemporary French philosophy of religion with work being done in the Anglo-American world.This book makes a constructive contribution to an important and growing philosophical discussion ... [It] offers not only an introduction to the philosophers considered, but also a fresh perspective from which to read them.Sophia About the Author
