We review the hermeneutic meaning of "Transignification" in Edward Schillebeeckx in order to briefly intervene in a debate between the cuir (queer) Argentine theologian Marcella Althaus-Reid1 and the British theologian and "orthodox radical" John Millbank, surrounding the "twisted" sacramentality of the divine presence in wounded and written off bodies. |
