A Brief Apology for a Catholic Moment Taschenbuch von Jean-Luc Marion

„This short, accessible volume by one of France’s leading philosophers provides insight into what „catholic“–in the sense of universal or all-embracing–truly means, and how this might relates to being a Catholic in the present moment. Jean-Luc Marion tackles complex issues surrounding secularism and what is often framed as a tension or conflict between „Islam and the West,“ focusing on the situation in France but addressing a larger Catholic audience that transcends national boundaries, social identities, and linguistic differences“– Über den Autor Jean-Luc Marion is the Andrew Thomas Greeley and Grace McNichols Greeley Professor of Catholic Studies at the Divinity School of the University of Chicago, where he is also a member of the Committee on Social Thought and the Department of Philosophy.
