Reviews
In this bold and provocative book, Wallenfang reengages the thought of three contemporary philosophical giants--Marion, Ricoeur, and Levinas--in the work of revivifying Catholic doctrines of the Eucharist. With its innovative approach to thinking the Eucharist as both manifestation and proclamation, and its refashioning of a dialectical process without Aufhebung, readers will ultimately find Dialectical Anatomy of the Eucharist challenging in its use of an erotic eucharistic phenomenology and claim for absolute truth. --Robyn Horner, Associate Professor, Institute for Religion and Critical Inquiry, Faculty of Theology and Philosophy, Theological Foundations for Enhancing Catholic Schools Identity Project, Australian Catholic University This book offers a fresh approach to our theological understanding of the Eucharist by providing a new philosophical underpinning. It really is a breathtaking approach that is sure to increase the profundity of our appreciation of the Eucharist, useful for theologians, philosophers, and other interested readers alike. --John C. Cavadini, McGrath-Cavadini Director, McGrath Institute for Church Life, University of Notre Dame
