Author Information

Ramona Fotiade is a Senior Lecturer in French at the University of Glasgow. She was educated in Oxford where she wrote her DPhil thesis on the existential philosophy of Lev Shestov and Benjamin Fondane from the point of view of their critique of Husserlian phenomenology and their influential conception of life and faith in the relationship between man and God. Her book publications on this topic include: Conceptions of the Absurd. From Surrealism to the Existential Thought of Shestov and Fondane (2001), The Tragic Discourse: Shestov's and Fondane's Existential Thought (2006), and Leon Chestov et Vladimir Jankelevitch: du tragique a l'ineffable (2011). David Jasper is a Professor of Literature and Theology at the University of Glasgow and the author of highly original interdisciplinary works that seek to articulate a postmodern theology incorporating views ranging from those of the earliest Christian theologians (the Fathers of the Desert, such as St Anthony) to the conception of the writers on the 'deserts' of the modern world, both geographical and interior. His recent publications include: The Sacred Desert (2004), The Sacred Body (2009) and The Sacred Community (2012). Olivier Salazar-Ferrer is a Lecturer in French Literature and Philosophy at the University of Glasgow. He is the author of two monographic studies of the existential writer, visual artist and philosopher, Benjamin Fondane, and of a book of interviews with Michel Henry, which was published with De Corlevour in 2010. He has written extensively on the interface between literature, visual arts and philosophy, with particular reference to Merleau-Ponty, Levinas, Camus, Fondane, Calaferte, Rene Char and Saint-John Perse.
