Paul Janz's book reconfigures this fundamental problem of Christian thinking as a twofold demand for integrity--integrity of reason and integrity of transcendence. It centers around an original yet faithful re-reading of Kant's empirical realism. Drawing on MacKinnon, Bonhoeffer, Barth and Marion, Janz challenges recent rushes to obscurantism and radicalization and culminates in a convergence between Christology and epistemology within empirical reality. A fresh, provocative yet faithful re-reading of Kant's empirical realism for philosophers and theologians Anti-realism and Realism illuminated through Bonhoeffer's Act and Being and MacKinnon's critical metaphysics Theological reference reconfigured as empirical referenceContents1.
