by Michael Kirwan (Author)
Rene Girard is a thinker who escapes categorization. Both literary critic and anthropologist, not exactly a theorist nor quite a theologian, he even escapes the ubiquitous distinction between modernism and post-modernism. Perhaps because of this, he is one of the more obscure of the many interlocutors with whom theology has engaged over the last couple of decades. If less well known, however, he is no less important, as the extended treatments of his work by the likes of Hans Urs von Balthasar and John Milbank testify.
