About this video
Runtime: 44 minsSteven DeLay discusses key thinkers in the area in Phenomenology. He begins with Janicaud's 1991 essay, which critiques the "theological turn" in French phenomenology, arguing it corrupts the field. He targets second-generation phenomenologists like Levinas, Marion, and Ricoeur for integrating biblical theology into phenomenology, blurring distinct philosophical boundaries. Janicaud accuses them of abandoning Husserl's rigorous method, substituting it with speculative metaphysics and theological concepts. His critique revolves around their failure to adhere to phenomenological reduction, claiming their work lacks clear, eidetic insights and coherent philosophical grounding. Despite Janicaud's intent to halt their influence, his essay ironically bolstered their prominence, stimulating debate and further attention to their theological phenomenological approach, reshaping the philosophical landscape.
