Writing Faith

Autor Timothy Stanley
en Limba Engleză Hardback – feb 2017
In Writing Faith, Timothy Stanley provides a novel reevaluation of Jacques Derridas deconstructive account of writing. Derridas various essays on writing's materiality in books, scrolls, typewriters and digital displays, briefly touched on the question of religion. At times he directed his attention to the mediatic nature of Christianity. However, such comments have rarely been applied to formal aspects of religious texts. In response, this book investigates the rise of the Christian codex in its second-to-fifth-century-CE Jewish and Greco-Roman contexts. By better understanding the religious nature of this technical development, it becomes possible to reframe writing's coincidence with faith.

Descriere

In Writing Faith, Timothy Stanley investigates the question concerning the mediatic nature of Christianity and the relationship between writing and faith. It is in this light that the codex's cosmopolitan capacity for transmitting the written word can be re-evaluated in its scrolled Greco-Roman and Jewish bibliographic contexts.
