Abstract
Response to Christina M. Gschwandtner’s Welcoming Finitude
Highlights
At the outset, Gschwandtner aims to situate her task at the intersection of two divergent phenomenological approaches to religion
Christina Gschwandtner’s Welcoming Finitude takes up the ambitious task of a phenomenology of liturgy that is simultaneously engaged in the broader conversations within contemporary phenomenology of religion as much as it is informed by recent developments in liturgical studies and liturgical theology
Gschwandtner places a wager on behalf of a phenomenology of religion which neither presupposes the neutrality or fundamentality of methodological atheism, nor covertly installs a theological point of view that would structurally determine the character of the phenomenon beforehand
Summary
Gschwandtner aims to situate her task at the intersection of (as much as in confrontation with) two divergent phenomenological approaches to religion. Gschwandtner, Welcoming Finitude: Toward a Phenomenology of Orthodox Liturgy.
