    A theory of human origins that is one-half Charles Darwin and one-half Cain and Abel is bound to entail a lot of rethinking of traditional themes.

Anthony Bartlett's book makes a signal ... Leer más

  • Mimetic Theory and Its Shadow

    Girard, Milbank, and Ontological Violence

    de Scott Cowdell ...
    Series series Studies in Violence, Mimesis & Culture
    Leading Girardian theologian Scott Cowdell seeks to resolve a long-standing challenge to mimetic theory: that it entails a fundamental brutishness—an ontological violence.
