The Radical Orthodoxy movement has revived postmodern theology’s interest in John Duns Scotus. This article reviews Catherine Pickstock’s substantial contribution to this discussion and the several articles that engage Pickstock in this same issue. The article notes two lines of engagement: the first, more analytical line considers the logic of “God‐talk,” the ratio Dei, to consider whether Scotus’s doctrine of univocity is adequate to speak of divine transcendence. The second is more historical and asks whether Radical Orthodoxy’s historical genealogy offers a sufficiently generous account of the plurality and ambiguity of the history of the church.
