520 |a Like most collaborative efforts in publishing this book has great strengths and inevitable weaknesses, the overall impression not being as clear or powerful as the sum of (some of) its parts. In her ‘Introduction’, Virginia Burrus establishes the project in distinction to Anders Nygren's classic work from the 1930s, Agape and Eros, which made a clear distinction between Christian agape and ‘vulgar eros’, of which Platonic eros, Nygren maintains, is a mere sublimation. Rather predictably in our contemporary culture, such a distinction is questioned and rejected, a perfectly legitimate critical reversal though one which has had sometimes disastrous and unbalancing consequences for the practice and writing of theology.
