Biography
Joseph Rivera is an Associate Professor of Philosophy of Religion, Dublin City University, Ireland.
Joseph S. O’Leary is an Irish theologian who taught literature at Sophia University, Tokyo, and held the Roche Chair for Interreligious Research at Nanzan University in Japan.
"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. [...] Overall, Theological Fringes of Phenomenology presents readers with easy access to current questions and responses to the relation between phenomenology and theology. Although the essays are written quite accessibly, the content of the essays will still likely appeal primarily to those graduate students and academics working directly on these figures or this fairly niche field." - Mark Novak in Religious Studies
