The Diremption of Meaning

Modern Theology, EarlyView.
Abstract Examining work by Rowan Williams, this essay explores what he often refers to as the ‘difficulty’ of writing theology.

Badiou and the Reconstruction of the Concept of God

Modern Theology, Volume 42, Issue 1, Page 187-209, January 2026.
Abstract In this article I first summarize Badiou’s and Žižek’s critique of the concept of God, which I and other interpreters conceive as a radicalization of the theology of the death of God. I then pose the question of how to formulate a positive conception of God after the death of God that would overcome the limits of negative or apophatic theology.

Abstract The affirmation of the co‐equality (homoousia) of the first and the second persons of the Trinity at the Council of Nicaea is a major milestone in the history of theology and the church.
