Engaging Dionysius beyond the usual texts and reading that corpus through Zizek, Rose offers way of linking ontology, language, and theology-through failure-that is theologically productive. -- Ellen Armour, Vanderbilt University This is the best work I have ever read on Zizek in relation to theology, maybe the best such work possible. Rose's prose style is clear and engaging, and her project significantly advances our understanding of Christian apophaticism, of Zizek's project, and of the potential future stakes of theology for a secular world. -- Adam Kotsko, author of Neoliberalism's Demons: On the Political Theology of Late Capital This is the best work I have ever read on Zizek in relation to theology, maybe the best such work possible.

Recommended. * Choice * This book is a valuable contribution to anyone remotely interested in political theology, continental philosophy, or method. The clear, concise, and accessible survey of varied works, movements, and figures, itself makes it worth the read. The arguments in the book will challenge the general reader or seminarian to take seriously the social impact-and potential-of philosophical and theological thought. The expert in the fields of continental philosophy or political theology will find a deft web of theological/philosophical conversation that is sure to stir. * Reading Religion * Author InformationMarika Rose is Lecturer in Philosophical Theology at the University of Winchester.
