More than two decades have passed since Chicago published the first
volume of this groundbreaking work in the Religion and Postmodernism
series. It quickly became influential across a wide range of
disciplines and helped to make the tools of poststructuralist thought
available to religious studies and theology, especially in the areas
of late medieval and early modern mysticism. Though the second
volume remained in fragments at the time of his death, Michel de
Certeau had the foresight to leave his literary executor detailed
instructions for its completion, which formed the basis for the
present work. Together, both volumes solidify Certeau’s place as a
touchstone of twentieth-century literature and philosophy, and
continue his exploration of the paradoxes of historiography; the
construction of social reality through practice, testimony, and
belief; the theorization of speech in angelology and glossolalia; and
the interplay of prose and poetry in discourses of the ineffable. This
book will be of vital interest to scholars in religious studies,
theology, philosophy, history, and literature.
