DOWNLOAD EBOOK →With Epiphanies of Darkness The Davies Group is proud to issue the revision of a work that is so important a part of the literature of deconstructive theology as a key title in our new series in Philosophical & Cultural Studies in Religion. Few religious thinkers have the philosophical sophistication of this author. This book is profound in its ability to bring together much of what is deepest & most disturbing in our age with the reality of a theological desire for more. Epiphanies of Darkness represents a searching & courageous appraisal of the state of theological discourse, as well as a powerful intervention into that discourse, with the aim of completely reconstituting what we mean by theology. Charles E. Winquist (PhD, University of Chicago) joined the faculty of Syracuse University as Thomas J. Watson Professor of Religion in 1986. His research & teaching specialties are philosophical theology, critical theory & hermeneutics.

Professionally active at the national level, he has held several offices in the American Academy of Religion & served as executive director from 1979-82.
