Beschreibung
"This remarkably fine book is timely and provocative. It is also one of a kind: a book that advances detailed exegesis of the New Testament, above all Paul's Letter to the Romans, by drawing deeply on Derrida's reflections concerned with justice and law, gift or grace, debt, duty, love, hospitality, and forgiveness."--Peggy Kamuf, University of Southern California
"Reading Derrida/Thinking Paul: On Justice yields new insights into the ethical and political stakes of Derrida's writings. Jennings shows Derrida and Paul to share a passion for justice and for thinking through the aporias justice's pursuit entails. Jennings' chapters skillfully juxtapose Paul and Derrida on law, violence, gift, faith, hospitality, and pardon. A book-length study of Derrida in relation to Paul is long overdue, and, after reading Jennings' text, reconsidering Derrida's and Paul's implications for contemporary dilemmas of justice becomes a must."--Robert S. Oventile, Pasadena City College
