作者简介
This book uses the early theology of Protestant theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer and Jewish philosopher Theodor Wiesengrund Adorno as occasions for reflection. The author conducts a meditation on their style and thus contributes to contemporary philosophical-theological dialogue. This study examines the future of dialectical theology as a form of non-identity thinking that is receptive to the epistemological, social and ethical priority of Otherness. Contents: Dialectics and the Theology of Otherness: Presuppositions, Context and Method; Bonhoeffer's "Act and Being:" The Priority of the Other as Critique of Idealism; Adorno's "Negative Dialectics:" Non-Identity, Social Ontology and the Ethics of Otherness; Conclusion: Theology and the Dialectics of Otherness.
