Writing Faith

Om Writing Faith

In Writing Faith, Timothy Stanley provides a novel reevaluation of Jacques Derrida's deconstructive account of writing. Derrida's 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. - from publisher.
