'Alain Badiou: Between Theology and Anti-theology' provides one of the first
comprehensive analyses of the relationship between Badiou's philosophy and
theology. Examining the full range of Badiou's writings, this provocative study
explores how Badiou's philosophy relies on theology even if he claims otherwise
and actively attempts to work against theology. Despite the complex questions
discussed - ranging across ontology, the theory of truth and the subject,
philosophy and its conditions, and anti-philosophy - this book presents a clear
and accessible overview of the theological, religious and biblical themes which
animate Badiou's philosophy.
