Taking her point of<br />departure in Baumgarten’s concept of sensitive cognition, she sets out to<br />develop a philosophy which, contrary to the erratic strictures of empirical<br />science, on the one hand, and superficial tendencies of the modern entertainment culture, on the other, is able to grasp experiences of ‘immanent<br />transcendence’ or ‘a surplus of meaning’. In this review article, however, I warn against the romanticizing implications of this endeavor inasmuch as the subject matter of theology is a confessional tradition rather than some form of experiential sensitivity.</p>}, number={4}, journal={Dansk Teologisk Tidsskrift}, author={Albinus, Lars}, year={2014}, month={dec.}, pages={317–325} }
