Although both thinkers criticize the traditional concept of truth as objectivity, they both find that rejecting it does not solve the problem. What is it in our natural existence that gave rise to the notion of truth?The answer to that question is threefold. First, Nietzsche and Merleau-Ponty both propose a genealogy of “truth” in which to exist means to make implicit truth claims. Second, both seek to recover the preobjective ground from which truth as an erroneous concept arose. Finally, this attempt at recovery leads both thinkers to ontological considerations regarding how we must conceive of a being whose structure allows for the existence of the belief in truth. In conclusion, Chouraqui suggests that both thinkers’ investigations of the question of truth lead them to conceive of being as the process of self-falsification by which indeterminate being presents itself as determinate.Perspectives in continental philosophy.Absolute, TheAmbiguityTruthElectronic books.Absolute, The.Ambiguity.Truth.121Chouraqui Frank790904MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910468023103321Ambiguity and the absolute1766878UNINA03253nam 22006494a 450 991045869730332120200520144314.01-317-14344-21-317-14343-41-281-10436-197866111043680-7546-8444-X(CKB)1000000000400913(EBL)438830(OCoLC)290510161(SSID)ssj0000147412(PQKBManifestationID)11163621(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000147412(PQKBWorkID)10009717(PQKB)10802340(MiAaPQ)EBC438830(Au-PeEL)EBL438830(CaPaEBR)ebr10211341(CaONFJC)MIL110436(EXLCZ)99100000000040091320060404d2007 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrEngaging deconstructive theology[electronic resource] /Ronald T.

Themes are considered from Derrida, Foucault, Mark C. Taylor, Rorty, and Cupitt, developing dialogue from an open-minded evangelical perspective. Ron Michener draws upon insights from radical postmodern thought and seeks to advance an apologetic approach to the Christian faith that acknowledges a mosaic of human sources including experience, literature, and the imagination.Ashgate new critical thinking in religion, theology, and biblical studies.TheologyDeconstructionPostmodernismReligious aspectsChristianityElectronic books.Theology.Deconstruction.PostmodernismReligious aspectsChristianity.230/.046Michener Ronald T859075MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910458697303321Engaging deconstructive theology1917491UNINA05174nam 22007214a 450 991079224220332120230606214253.00-19-517434-81-280-47343-60-19-803104-10-19-530237-09786610473434(CKB)2560000000299973(EBL)3051984(OCoLC)70743416(SSID)ssj0001147792(PQKBManifestationID)12503678(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001147792(PQKBWorkID)11142904(PQKB)10805290(SSID)ssj0000088577(PQKBManifestationID)11127189(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000088577(PQKBWorkID)10071849(PQKB)11622760(StDuBDS)EDZ0000075003(MiAaPQ)EBC3051984(Au-PeEL)EBL3051984(CaPaEBR)ebr10103547(CaONFJC)MIL47343(EXLCZ)99256000000029997320010417d2002 uy 0engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierOpening a mountain kōans of the Zen Masters /Steven HeineOxford ;New York :Oxford University Press,2002.1 online resource (xiv, 200 pages) mapDescription based upon print version of record.0-19-513586-5 0-19-983429-6 Includes bibliographical references (p. xi) and index.Contents; Sources; Preface; INTRODUCTION: What Are Koans?; Sticks and Stones, but It's No-Names That Hurt; On the Conventional Understanding of Koans; Marvelous and Ritual Elements in Koans; The Case of Chü-chih Cutting Off a Finger; The Mythological Background of Koan Literature; Zen Masters and Their Mountains; Koan Themes and Sources; Themes; Sources; On Reading Koans; 1.
