Inhaltsangabe

This is the first major effort to systematically organise and evaluate Schelling’s arguments for a Philosophy of Revelation and to demonstrate their importance for contemporary debates in speculative realism, new realism and post-secularism. Schelling’s decisionism has long been recognised as the historical root of European existentialism, but has never been properly explained as a philosophical strategy. According to McGrath, Schelling’s turn to the real is neither fideistic nor absurdist, but the consequence of the free decision of the philosopher who has soberly assessed the results of logic, nature-philosophy and epistemology.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

An uncovering of the postsecular relevance of the late Schelling’s Philosophy of RevelationSchelling’s positive philosophy has long been recognised as the historical root of Marxism, existentialism and other central trends in continental philosophy, but its main argument has never been fully elaborated as a tenable philosophical strategy for thinking Christianity forward into its future. According to McGrath, Schelling’s late turn to speculative theological realism, the positive, is neither fideistic nor arbitrary, but rather the consequence of the free decision of the philosopher who has soberly assessed the results of logic, nature-philosophy and historical-critical and systematic theology.This is a pioneering effort to reconstruct Schelling’s argument for the truth of the doctrine of the Trinity and to assess its philosophical and theological validity.Sean J. McGrath is Professor of Philosophy and Theology at Memorial University of Newfoundland.
