- Summary:
- "This short, accessible volume by one of France's leading philosophers provides insight into what "catholic"--in the sense of universal or all-embracing--truly means, and how this might relates to being a Catholic in the present moment. Jean-Luc Marion tackles complex issues surrounding secularism and what is often framed as a tension or conflict between "Islam and the West," focusing on the situation in France but addressing a larger Catholic audience that transcends national boundaries, social identities, and linguistic differences"-- Provided by publisher.
