The Wedding Feast of the Lamb - Emmanuel Falque - Bog

Emmanuel FalqueΓÇÖs The Wedding Feast of the Lamb represents a turning point in his thought. Here, Falque links philosophy and theology in an original fashion that allows us to see the full effect of theologyΓÇÖs ΓÇ£backlashΓÇ¥ against philosophy.
By attending closely to the incarnation and the eucharist, Falque develops a new concept of the body and of love: By avoiding the common mistake of ΓÇ£angelismΓÇ¥ΓÇöconsciousness without bodyΓÇöFalque considers the depths to which our humanity reflects animality, or body without consciousness. He shows the continued relevance of the question ΓÇ£How can this man give us his flesh to eat?ΓÇ¥ (John 6:52), especially to philosophy.
We need to question the meaning of ΓÇ£this is my bodyΓÇ¥ in ΓÇ£a way that responds to the needs of our timeΓÇ¥ (Vatican II). Because of the ways that ΓÇ£Hoc est corpus meumΓÇ¥ has shaped our culture and our modernity, this is a problem both for religious belief and for culture.
