| Summary: | This crisis of representation is a manifold phenomenon, with a very complex genealogy that affects almost every sphere of human life and coexistence in our post-modern society. The paper tries to sketch out a few aspects concerning the topic and cast some light on the deep changes brought about by the crisis of representation; changes and transformations that can be easily detected in the public sphere as well as in people!s everyday lives. Through the analysis of the historic genesis of European modernity, it is possible to understand the secular as a void of representation: the force that enables the dualistic play of political and religious power. Drawing on that, the paper suggests a performative understanding of religion as a practice of everyday life that outlines a possible framework for a post-representational order in time of the crisis of representation. |
