Chapter 1Introduction

Chapter 2Kierkegaard and the Limit of Analogy

Shakespeare, Steven

Pages: 21 –45

[It is well known that Kierkegaard was fascinated by boundary disputes. Approaching a boundary is both a containment and an exposure. On the one hand, the experience of drawing near to a border offers an assurance. It promises a delineated territory, an area that can be marked off, traversed, and...

Chapter 3Distinctions: Marks of the Paradox

Shakespeare, Steven

Pages: 47 –75

[The limit between immanence and transcendence is not simple. Rather than merely dividing two distinct domains, it intervenes in and organizes those domains. As we have argued, analogy (even in the minimal Barthian requirement that we can specify the “whence” of a revelation) is a crucial, and...

Chapter 4The Paradox Is Not One: Transfiguring Transcendence

Shakespeare, Steven

Pages: 77 –100

[So far, we have approached the relationship between immanence and transcendence by exploring the question of analogy. Although Kierkegaard is not deploying a technical sense of analogical language, there is nevertheless a connection between his usage of poetic figures and what, say, a Thomistic...

Chapter 5Monstrance: Articulating the Paradox

Shakespeare, Steven

Pages: 101 –135

[There is always a struggle about where the monsters lie. If you want to determine what is known, charted, amenable to civilization and colonization, you must draw a boundary beyond which is the uncanny wild. The act of demonstrating the known is simultaneously one of revealing the monstrous.]

Chapter 6Silhouettes: Figuring the Immanent Paradox

Shakespeare, Steven

Pages: 137 –157

[I have been arguing that Kierkegaard’s paradox is best understood in terms of a dynamic ethics of immanence, one that refuses the mediation of the transcendent offered by analogy and its sublimation of suffering into theodicy. Allied to this is an insistence that the paradox only exists as...

Chapter 7Satan’s Angel: The Interruption of the Demonic

Shakespeare, Steven

Pages: 159 –178

[The demonic and the divine have a troubled relationship with language. The divine cannot appear and be recognizable in a direct way. Abraham’s faith cannot be communicated in universal categories. He is silent, or he speaks in tongues. As for the demonic, it is defined in terms of an inclosing...
LitStream

Chapter 8Kierkegaard, Spinoza, and the Intellectual Love of God

Shakespeare, Steven

Pages: 179 –196

[A possible objection to the argument so far would be this: in accentuating the way in which immanence can be figured as resisting or refusing transcendence, has it not been relativized? That is to say: is this immanence merely a reflex of transcendence, intrinsically coupled to its opposite in...

Chapter 9Conclusion: Theology for Creatures

Shakespeare, Steven

Pages: 197 –207

[In the animated film The Incredibles (dir. Bird, 2004), we are shown a time in which superheroes are forced to go underground. As more and more people sue the government for the accidental damage and injury incurred by the heroes’ attempts to stave off various disasters, the decision is taken to...
