Enactment, Politics, and Truth: Pauline Themes in Agamben, Badiou, and Heidegger
Antonio Cimino
Antonio Cimino develops a new interpretation of Saint Paul’s influence on contemporary philosophy by focusing on the question of how thinkers such as Agamben, Badiou, and Heidegger understand the articulation of faith (pistis) on the basis of their own readings of the Pauline letters. Cimino analyzes both secret or unsuspected convergences and important differences between the interpretations of Saint Paul that have been developed by Agamben, Badiou, and Heidegger. In doing so, he goes beyond an immanent reading of these three authors and shows the shared post-metaphysical horizon in which their interest in Saint Paul should be located. This is the first comprehensive attempt to bring these authors together by critically analyzing their interpretations of Saint Paul’s letters.
