Kierkegaard and the Refusal of TranscendenceSilhouettes: Figuring the Immanent Paradox

Kierkegaard and the Refusal of Transcendence: Silhouettes: Figuring the Immanent Paradox [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 figured, expressed or articulated in existence. There is no transcendent original seeking to enter the world from the outside, but only the excessive power of the unconditioned deforming and remaking the world from within.] http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png

Abstract

[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 figured, expressed or articulated in existence. There is no transcendent original seeking to enter the world from the outside, but only the excessive power of the unconditioned deforming and remaking the world from within.]
