Description
Terry Eagleton's Radical Sacrifice offers a trenchant analysis of sacrifice as the foundation of modern social order. Eagleton challenges prevailing views of sacrifice, arguing that it has long been misunderstood. He pursues the complex lineage of sacrifice in a lyrical discourse, drawing on philosophers, theologians, and texts from various traditions. In this thought-provoking work, Eagleton explores the meaning of sacrifice in modernity, shedding light on its connections to death, eros, irony, and hybridity.
