(2018) William Desmond's philosophy between metaphysics, religion, ethics, and aesthetics, Dordrecht, Springer.
Reactivating Christian metaphysical glory in the wake of its eclipse
William Desmond contra Giorgio Agamben
Philip Gonzales
pp. 209-225
In his contribution, Philip Gonzales stages a dialogue between two seemingly antithetical thinkers, Desmond and Agamben. Gonzales argues that Desmond provides a reconstructed Christian metaphysics against the profaning thought of Agamben. Agamben is incapable of thinking the Sabbath or rest of God beyond the terms of retreat while metaxology provides the resources to think the Sabbath of God as part of the creatureliness of human beings.
