description: "This is a remarkable book: wide-ranging, resonant, and well-written; it is also reflective and personable, warm and engaging." --Philosophy and Literature"With this book Caputo takes his place firmly as the foremost American, continental post-modernist... " --International Philosophical Quarterly"One cannot but be impressed by the scope of Radical Hermeneutics." --Man and World"Caputo's study is stunning in its scope and scholarship." --Robert E. Lauder, St. John's University, The ThomistFor John D.

Radical Hermeneutics forges a closer collaboration between hermeneutics and deconstruction than has previously been attempted.
