Abstract

Drawing on a wide range of sources-from Toni Morrison to Derrida to grassroots "death positive" movements-Beatrice Marovich critiques a political theology that pits life and death against each other in a state of endless war. Adapting the figure of "Sister Death" from Saint Francis, she calls for recognizing that life and death are family.

Abstract

Explores the contemporary significance of Alfred North Whitehead’s 1927 book Symbolism: Its Meaning and EffectThis collection of 11 essays form a new examination of Whitehead’s Barbour-Page lectures, which were published as the book Symbolism: Its Meaning and Effect in 1927. Leading Whitehead scholars give you exciting insights into the contemporary implications of Whitehead's symbolism in an era of new scientific, cultural and technological developments. As a result, Whitehead's philosophy is reinvigorated in the context of contemporary discussions and debates. This volume also serves as a critical point of entry into Whitehead’s more lengthy and complex work such as Process and Reality, and to his body of work as a whole.ContributorsJeffrey Bell, Professor of Philosophy at Southeastern Louisiana UniversityRoland Faber, Kilsby Family/John B.
