Description
Summary:Theology and Marxism in Eagleton and Žižek is an engagingly written account of the turn (or return) to theology in the works of two of today's preeminent public intellectuals, Slavoj Žižek and Terry Eagleton. Thorough, mostly accurate and discerning (as far as this author is qualified to say), and animated everywhere by the author's stylistic clarity and ethical engagement, the book will serve as a good introduction for readers new to Žižek's and Eagleton's voluminous, ever-expanding oeuvres. It will stand as well as a helpful compendium and source book for scholars more senior in this field.
