From the Double Movement to the Double Danger / Matthew C. Bagger in Harvard Theological Review, 102/3 (2009)
[article]
Titre : From the Double Movement to the Double Danger : Kierkegaard and Rebounding Violence Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Matthew C. Bagger, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : pp. 327-352. Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : In the introduction to Prey into Hunter: The Politics of Religious Experience, Maurice Bloch makes some forthright admissions about the methodological and theoretical pitfalls threatening a project of the scope he undertakes in this slim, provocative volume. He acknowledges, for instance, the temptation, when arguing for what he describes as a “quasi-universal” religious structure, to present “a tendentious selection of examples, and make this structure appear to be present everywhere.” In the face of this danger, independent readers, who “choose to continue the exercise by trying to see whether what is proposed here stands up to the test of the other cases they know” become the most important critical constraint. In what follows I test Bloch's theory of rebounding violence against the thought of Søren Kierkegaard, the nineteenth-century Danish theologian.
