Reviews

Agamben, through the close reading of Pauline letter and the comparison of W. Benjamin's philosophy of history, gives us a fruitful key to better understand Western history and civilization. Philosophers and theologians will learn a great deal from reading this book. -- Philosophy in Review/Comptes Rendus philosophiques


The Time that Remains presents itself as an exegetical seminar on the opening line of the Letter to the Romans ( Paul, called as a slave of Jesus the Messiah, separated as apostle for the announcement of God )... Agamben's insightful close reading of the Pauline corpus sets this book apart from the more free-range grazing over the text modeled by Badiou and iek. -- Radical Philosophy Review
