Transcendence in philosophy and religion [electronic resource]

Can transcendence be both philosophical and religious? Do philosophers and theologians conceive of the same thing when they think and talk about transcendence? Philosophy and religion have understood transcendence and other matters of faith differently, but both the language and concepts of religion, including transcendence, reside at the core of postmodern philosophy. This volume considers whether it's possible to analyze religious transcendence in a philosophical manner, and, if so, whether there is a way for phenomenology to think transcendence directly.
