The Time That Remains
The Time That Remains
Why it’s on the list: Agamben’s reading of Paul’s Letter to the Romans as a commentary on “messianic time” — the remnant of time that remains after the messianic event but before the end — the philosophical scaffolding behind Miller’s “early onset postmortality.”
Where I saw it: Flagged #books-to-read while reading Future Mormon by Adam S. Miller, who leans on Agamben’s account of messianic time to read repentance and grace.
