Postmodernism and the Ethics of Theological Knowledge (Routledge New Critical Thinking in Religion, Theology and Biblical Studies)

Rorty and Lyotard argue that any claim to know God is necessarily tyrannical. This book suggests that our knowedge of God and love of the Other are so intimately connected that we cannot have one without the other. It also proposes that an effective theological response to postmodernity must address knowledge and ethics in an integrated fashion.
