The panel seeks to bring together perspectives both aligned with and in opposition to Vattimo's thought, with the goal of offering a broad range of ideas on topics that, with regard to religion, can be considered of fundamental importance; among these are the relationship between truth and violence, and the precise meaning to be assigned to "kenosis" when someone in general professes to be a "Christian".
Through his writings dedicated to these themes, Vattimo has made - like few other contemporary philosophers -, a significant contribution to a renewed reflection on the destiny of religion, though his conclusions and provocations are not always universally accepted. The aim of the panel is not a sterile apology of Vattimo's ideas, but to explore the discourse on religion starting from certain Vattimian suggestions, without prejudging the final outcome of this engagement, which may also include divergent views.
(We are still accepting up to a maximum of five more contributions).
