Face of the Deep: A Theology of Becoming
This
is a groundbreaking, highly original work of postmodern feminist
theology from one of the most important authors in the field. The Face
of the Deep deconstructs the Christian doctrine of creation which claims
that a transcendent Lord unilaterally created the universe out of
nothing. Catherine Keller's impassioned, graceful meditation develops an
alternative representation of the cosmic creative process, drawing upon
Hebrew myths of creation, from chaos, and engaging with the political
and the mystical, the literary and the scientific, the sexual and the
racial.
As a landmark work of immense significance for Jewish and Christian theology, gender studies, literature, philosophy and ecology, The Face of the Deep takes our originary story to a new horizon, rewriting the starting point for Western spiritual discourse.
