| Summary: | Bringing Michel Henry and Emmanuel Falque into dialogue, Mark Novak explores how they both articulate a phenomenology of the body and flesh in relation to incarnation and resurrection. Beginning with an overview of phenomenology's origins and the shift towards embodiment, Novak surveys numerous theories from Husserl's foundational distinction between flesh and body to Merleau-Ponty and Maine de Biran. With this, focus turns to Henry and Falque's writings. This volume illustrates how phenomenological foundations inform both thinkers' theological views and uncovers the differences and, in some cases, unexpected similarities between their positions on the central Christian tenets of resurrection and incarnation. |
