{"product_id":"being-desire-and-god-9781531516581","title":"Being, Desire, and God","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe first collection of late philosopher William J. Richardson’s essays, underscoring his deep and expansive scholarly interests in continental philosophy, and containing his interpretation of key issues in phenomenology, the philosophy of religion, and psychoanalysis.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eBeing, Desire, and God\u003c\/i\u003e brings together the scholarly articles of  William J. Richardson in one place for the first time. Richardson  maintained a reputation as a foremost scholar of Heidegger’s  philosophy—his only sole-authored monograph was the first on Heidegger’s  thought in English, and included the only preface Heidegger ever wrote  for another philosopher’s work—as well as an expert in psychoanalysis  and the philosophy of religion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRichardson also published many  articles. However, many are contained in volumes now out of print, or  scholarly journals with limited availability. \u003ci\u003eBeing, Desire, and God\u003c\/i\u003e remedies this issue by presenting a thematic overview of Richardson’s work in a single volume.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe  essays included in this volume are unique insofar as few can be  categorized as exclusively dealing with either the philosophy of  religion, psychoanalysis, or phenomenology. On the contrary, the book is  a model for the dialogue possible between these fields. Those  interested in both the depth and breadth of continental philosophy, as  well as detailed exegesis of some of its most influential ideas, will  find value in this book. In addition, this book demonstrates  Richardson’s deep and sustained attention to questions endemic to  Christian philosophy, such as original sin and the nature of religious  experience. This collection also includes many instances of Richardson’s  sustained engagement with literature and culture.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"William J.
