Reseña del libro "Melancholy and the Otherness of God: A Study in the Genealogy, Hermeneutics, and Therapeutics of Depression (en Inglés)"

An impressive study that prompts the reader toward philosophical reflection on the hermeneutics of melancholy in its relation to maturing theological understanding and cultivation of a profound selfconsciousness Melancholy has been interpreted as a deadly sin or demonic temptation to nonbeing yet its history of interpretation reveals a progressive coming to terms with the dark mood that ultimately unveils it as the selfs own ground and a trace of the abysmal nature of God The book advances two provocative claims that far from being a contingent condition melancholy has been progressively acknowledged as constitutive of subjectivity as such a trace of divine otherness and pathos and that the effort to transcend melancholylike Perseus vanquishing Medusais a necessary labor of maturing selfconsciousness Reductive attempts to eliminate it besides being dangerously utopian risk overcoming the labor of the soul that makes us human This study sets forth a rigorous scholarly argument that spans several disciplines including philosophy theology psychology and literary studies
