Philology of the Flesh

Meer over het boek

Exploring the concept of the Incarnation, this book delves into the interplay between language and the divine. John T. Hamilton presents philology as a form of love for words, examining how language transcends mere information, emphasizing its corporeal nature. Through a range of intellectual episodes, from Renaissance Humanism to modern poetry, he highlights the connection between form and content, urging a reevaluation of our engagement with language. This work invites readers to consider the deeper implications of how we understand and interact with words.
