Reviews

In this important book, Dubilet recharges immanence via Deleuze and Laruelle to fashion a kenotic subject without transcendence. Based on cutting-edge scholarship, these ground-breaking interpretations of Eckhart, Hegel, and Bataille constitute a significant intervention into contemporary continental philosophy of religion and theology. -- Clayton Crockett * University of Central Arkansas * The Self-Emptying Subject: Kenosis and Immanence, Medieval to Modern is lucid, timely, and important. Dubilet explores kenosis as a radical possibility for life-where we may find an immanent joy not dependent on a future redemption. Meticulous and original readings of Meister Eckhart, Friedrich Hegel, and Georges Bataille ground the exploration. This is a fantastically worthwhile book for scholars and students of kenosis, subjectivity, divine immanence, or any of the historical figures that it explores. -- Karmen MacKendrick * Le Moyne College *
