“…Marion's philosophy has at times been criticized for veering into theology (Smith (1999); Janicaud (2000); Gschwandtner (2019)). Yet, Marion will insist that in articulating the characteristics of saturated phenomena he is not making a metaphysical claim about transcendent reality but simply outlining a possible phenomenon.…”

This article presents a new approach to understanding ritual: embodied world construction. Informed by phenomenology and a philosophy of embodiment, this approach argues that rituals can (re)shape the structure of an individual's perceptual world. Ritual participation transforms how the world appears for an individual through the inculcation of new perceptual habits, enabling the perception of objects and properties which could not previously be apprehended. This theory is then applied to two case studies from an existing ethnographic study of North American evangelicalism, indicating how the theory of embodied world construction can shed new light on how individuals are shaped by ritual practice.

“…Pero, al mismo tiempo, y como contra-crítica, ¿no habrá ocurrido que la fenomenología se ha ido ocupando cada vez más de los objetos físicos, olvidando otras modalidades de donación, derivando así en una doctrina capax entis, pero imposibilitada para tratar con otras realidades del mundo humano (capax passionis)? Janicaud parece estar convencido de algo: que el método fenomenológico no es lo que debería ser en los escritos de Levinas, Marion, Chrétien y Henry, y ello en virtud de que esta segunda generación de fenomenólogos franceses desea implicarse, aunque Janicaud (2000) formula esta afirmación bajo una forma inquisitiva, en la apertura a lo invisible, al Otro, a la donación, a la Archirrevelación: "The opening [ouverture] to the invisible, to the Other [Autre], to a pure givenness [donation], or to an archi-revelation"? (p. 17).…”

En este artículo se analiza la noción de fenómeno saturado en el pensamiento de Marion, pero, ante todo, y relacionado con dicho fenómeno, el tipo de sujeto que corresponde a la afectación saturante. La discusión se centra en la superación de la figura del Yo trascendental, y de la Modernidad en general, para dar lugar a un sujeto disminuido, a una diminutio ipseitatis, debida fundamentalmente a una iniciativa que, alega Marion, no proviene tanto del sujeto afectado, cuanto del fenómeno que lo afecta. Desalojado de su formidable centro, el sujeto kenotizado emprende una clase de recreación bastante peculiar, la cual consiste en el conjunto de respuestas que habrá de ofrecer a la densidad del fenómeno mencionado. El sujeto se recibe de lo que recibe. En una hermenéutica sucesiva que retoma la afectación, tendrá que hacerse cargo del golpe de lo dado, es decir, de aquello que lo afecta, pero no exactamente de la manera como afectan los objetos a un sujeto cognoscente. A la pregunta de Nancy “¿qué viene después del sujeto?”, hay que responder sin ninguna hesitación: el sujeto, empero ahora disminuido en su capacidad creadora de mundo a través de la síntesis trascendental: l’adonné, el adonado.

“…As László Tengelyi (2010) argues, phenomenology applied from its naissance what several authors termed ‘methodological atheism’. To support this claim, Tengelyi uses Dominique Janicaud’s text (1991), which suggests that phenomenology departed its original framework of the dedicated analysis of the apparent and changed to the analysis of the inapparent, the subject matter of theology. For Janicaud, this change was in some sense inappropriate or at least non-phenomenological.…”

The sovereignty of revelation: On Paul Ricœur’s hermeneutics of revelation

In this article I overview Paul Ricœur’s understanding of divine revelation on the basis of some of his relevant writings. I argue that Ricœur’s hermeneutics of revelation has two aspects: on the one hand Ricœur’s explains the complex ways of acquiring and interpreting divine revelation especially with respect to the Bible; on the other hand, he acknowledges that revelation, originating in God’s freedom, is immediately given. In Ricœur’s view, the understanding of this immediacy is tainted by the presence of evil in human understanding which hinders the realization of revelation itself. As a critique of this standpoint I argue that the immediate givenness of revelation is logically and phenomenologically presupposed in our interpretations. Any hermeneutics of revelation entails a phenomenology of revelation. This phenomenology contains both the self-founding of human beings and, at the same time, the recognition of the absoluteness of the divine. Husserl’s phenomenology offers a way to the understanding of the immediacy of revelation through his central term of Eigenheitlichkeit. Ricœur understands this term not as genuine reality but rather as appartenance, ‘belonging to’, and reshapes its meaning in line with a hermeneutical naturalism. This explains his difficulty to conceive properly the sovereignty of revelation and the importance of phenomenology in the understanding of its immediate character.
