by François Laruelle, Robin Mackay

About this book

This title targets the rigid, self-sustaining arguments of metaphysics, rooted in Judaic and Greek thought, and explores the radical potential of Christ, whose 'crossing' disrupts their circular discourse. It is built upon the idea of 'nonphilosophy', or 'nonstandard philosophy', a way of thinking that goes past the theoretical limits of Western philosophy to realise new relations among religion, science, politics, and art. Positioning itself against orthodox religion and naive atheism alike, the book is a heretical experiment that ties religion tightly to the human experience and the lived world.
