Touches upon Spinoza, Hegel, Augustine, Pseudo-Dionysius, Aquinas, Barth, Kierkegaard, Levinas, Derrida, and Marion. This work centres around a critique of onto-theology, the importance of alterity, the decentered self, and the autonomous transcendental ego. It seeks to rethink divine transcendence in relation to modes of human self-transcendence.
