This week I was offered an advance contract by Fordham University Press for an essay collection. Tentatively entitled What is Theology?, it will bring together previously published, unpublished, and freshly written essays exploring the relationship between philosophy, political theology, and constructive theology. I plan to complete the manuscript by early next summer.
Last week, I submitted a proposal and writing sample to Edinburgh University Press for my current work-in-progress, a monograph on the thought of Giorgio Agamben with an emphasis on the ways it changes and adapts in response to world events and new intellectual influences. I anticipate completing the manuscript within the next several weeks.
Finally, I was offered a contract by Seagull Press to translate Agamben’s Il Regno e Il Giardino (The Kingdom and the Garden), a study of the role of the earthly Paradise or Garden of Eden in Western thought.
