Postmodern Philosophy and Christian Thought
Outline: Are postmodern philosophy and Christian thought so diametrically opposed that "never the twain shall meet"? Or are various postmodern philosophies, in spite of their secular provenance, open to religious appropriation? From the Christian side, it is all too easy to see postmodern philosophy as nothing but an implacable enemy; while those with postmodern sympathies view Christianity as the embodiment of a hegemony that must be forcefully opposed. Thinkers from Catholic, Protestant, and Jewish perspectives engage Nietzsche, Heidegger, Derrida, and Foucault in explorations of the epistemological, theological, literary, ethical, and social issues provoked by bringing postmodern philosophy into dialogue with Christian thought. Thirteen intelligent and penetrating essays awaken secular postmodernisms and various modes of religious thinking ideological complacency.
