The Fidelity of Reason: A Phenomenological Metaphysics of Self, Nature and Divinity
The book reveals a phenomenological metaphysics, which places it at the cutting edge of contemporary work on phenomenology. It addresses the crisis of world that is all around us as the meaning structures relating to self, nature and divinity all seem to be undermined politically and socially within the current reality of climatic, geo-political and ideology turmoil. In addressing these issues, this text argues for a renewed understanding of reason as a fidelity to world understood as faithfulness to the being and value of self, nature and divinity. The account of the self engages with contemporary and older phenomenological discussions (Husserl, Heidegger, Ricoeur, Henry, Zahavi) as well as debates in the Philosophy of Mind; the account of nature ranges over Schelling’s Naturphilosophie, Whitehead, Philosophy of Quantum Physics and Bruno Latour; the section on divinity engages with debates in Anthropology and the History of Religion as well as within the so-called ‘theological turn’ and theological discussions of ecology. This book is directed at scholars working within the fields of phenomenology, philosophy of nature, philosophy of self, philosophical theology, philosophy of religion and metaphysics as well as upper undergraduate and graduate students in philosophy, ecological studies and theology.

“An enlightening commentary on Merold Westphal’s intricate thought and provokes new questions concerning the original project of his diverse philosophy.” —B. Keith Putt, editor of The Future of Continental Philosophy of Religion Merold Westphal is considered to be one of the preeminent Continental philosophers of religion. His articulation of faith as the task of a lifetime has become a touchstone in contemporary debates concerning faith’s relationship to reason. As Justin Sands explores his philosophy, he illuminates how Westphal’s concept of faith reveals the pastoral, theological intent behind his thinking. Sands sees Westphal’s philosophy as a powerful articulation of Protestant theology, but one that is in ecumenical dialogue with questions concerning apologetics and faith’s relationship to ethics and responsibility, a more Catholic point of view. By bringing out these features in Westphal’s philosophy, Sands intends to find core philosophical methodologies as well as a passable bridge for philosophers to cross over into theological discourses. “[An] engaging and illuminating work.” —William Desmond, David Cook Chair in Philosophy, Villanova University, Professor of Philosophy, Institute of Philosophy, KU Leuven, Belgium “A long overdue critical homage to one of the bravest religious thinkers of our generation.” —Richard Kearney, Charles B. Seelig Chair of Philosophy at Boston College
