in: Dennis van den Auweele (ed), William Desmond's philosophy between metaphysics, religion, ethics, and aesthetics, Berlin, Springer, 2018Abstract
Discussions on this topic of relating God to the world have been a mainstay in philosophical theology, for instance, between the Russian authors Shestov and Solov"ëv. In discussion with Desmond's discussion of these authors in Is There a Sabbath for Thought? Josephien van Kessel proposes that there is far greater similarity between the Sophiology of Solov"ëv (and Bulgakov) and Desmond's metaxology.
