He asks how these two 'returns to religion' can be taking place simultaneously, and explores the relationship between them.Lambert reflects on statements of these returns from contemporary philosophers including Alain Badiou, John D. Caputo, Jacques Derrida and Jean-Luc Nancy. He discovers a unique - and forboding - sense of the term 'religion' that belongs exclusively to our contemporary perspective UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9781474413923?locatt=mode:legacy UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9781474413923 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9781474413923/original ER -
