Description
Religion Rereading what is Bound Together by Michel Serres presents a profound final work that completes Le Grand Récit, a comprehensive explanation of the world and humanity. In this book, Serres explores his long-standing preoccupation with religion, reinterpreting themes from his earlier writings in light of biblical accounts. Serres argues that monotheistic religion shares similarities with mathematical abstraction in its ability to unite the real and virtual, natural and transcendent. He examines how Christian embodiment can bring together human beings, dissolving partisan attachments and paving the way for a new era of history free from collective violence. Through this work, Serres offers a unique perspective on the role of religion in modern society, drawing connections between energy, information, sacrifice, scientific knowledge, and the problem of evil.
