- Sensual Soundings
253,95 - 788,95 kr. Voices are material, somatic, and musical. They are also meaningful-they give body to concepts that cannot exist in abstractions. Through explorations of theology, pedagogy, translation, and more, this book works toward reintegrating our thinking about words as a fleshy combining of meaning and music.

- Figuring Language at the Surface of Flesh
508,95 - 1.253,95 kr. Today, body and language are prominent themes throughout philosophy. Each is strange enough on its own; this book asks what sense we might make of them together. Words reach out. Hands pick up books; eyes or fingertips scan text. This title examines three somatic figures of speech: the touch, the fold, and the cut.

- Theological Seductions
323,95 - 743,95 kr. Divine Enticement argues for a reconception of theology and its subject matter as modes of seduction, of both body and mind. Theological language as evocation opens onto rereadings of faith, sacrament, ethics, prayer, and scripture. The conclusion argues for a sense of theology as calling upon infinite possibility.
