Theological Fringes of Phenomenology is one of the latest volumes within the wider movement known as the 'theological turn in French phenomenology'.The collection contains four parts bringing together twenty-two essays, which are written by a wide variety of scholars -emerging, mid-career, and emerita -from around the globe: Australia, South Africa, USA, and Europe.A pro and con of the essays is their length, each being roughly eight to ten pages.The pro is that each essay is short, to the point, and doesn't drag on, allowing readers to get a glimpse of a specific theme or phenomena at the confluence of theology and phenomenology; the con is that some essays feel under-developed, or in some cases I was just hoping for more!As I don't have nearly enough space to comment adequately on even close to twenty-two essays, I will highlight a few that I think are exemplary.Part I is titled 'Phenomenologists in Theological Mode', and includes six essays that focus on the two fathers of phenomenology, Edmund Husserl and Martin Heidegger, as well as Michel Henry.They all aim, in various ways, to bring to light the relationship between phenomenology and religious experience, and especially to locate this in these key phenomenological thinkers.Essays by
