Yet these very same traditions are regularly decried as antecedents to the violent and authoritarian ideologies of modernity. Informed in equal parts by theology and historical theory, this book offers a provocative exploration of this double-edged legacy. Author Jayne Svenungsson rigorously pursues a middle path between utopian arrogance and an enervated postmodernism, assessing the impact of Jewish and Christian theologies of history on subsequent thinkers, and in the process identifying a web of spiritual and intellectual motifs extending from ancient Jewish prophets to contemporary radicals such as Giorgio Agamben and Slavoj Zizek.   410 0$aMaking sense of history ;$vVolume 26. 606 $aJewish philosophy 606 $aHistory$xReligious aspects 606 $aChristianity 615 0$aJewish philosophy. 615 0$aHistory$xReligious aspects. 615 0$aChristianity. 676 $a181.06 700 $aSvenungsson$b Jayne$01629906 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910818393403321 996 $aDivining history$93967928 997 $aUNINA
