Derrida and Religion: Other Testaments represents the most comprehensive attempt to date to explore, adapt, and test Derrida’s contributions and influence on the study of theology, biblical studies, and the philosophy of religion. With over twenty original essays from highly respected scholars such as John Caputo, Daniel Boyarin, Edith Wyschogrod, Catherine Keller, Gil Anidjar, and Ellen Armour, Derrida and Religion will quickly become the “go to” text for those interested in the interface of religion and deconstruction.

A substantial introduction by Yvonne Sherwood and Kevin Hart provides an accessible overview of the issues and themes central to the discussion of religion and deconstruction. The volume also includes a lengthy interview with Derrida conducted by the editors together with John Caputo.
