I am happy to see my book "Kinder der Trinität" featured in @VerlagKarlAlber's new releases (alongside @RyanHaecker's forthcoming book).

Schelling wanted a chair in theology rather than philosophy. He read philosophy as theology by introducing into it the negative-positive oscillation that is mystical-theological. His doctrine of 3 potencies is a Trinitarian ontology. His account of God is analogical not univocal.

At the 24-26 June 'Nature Lost, Nature Regained' conference, I am delighted to have been invited to deliver an invited speaker talk titled 'Angel-Oriented-Ontology: Angelic Physics after Speculative Realism'. Abstract: Before Nature, the angels were created on the 'First Day' of creation.  As messengers of God, the angels (ἄγγελοι) have, since Philo and Origen of Alexandria, been classically regarded as ontological intermediaries, who, by aiding in the subsequent 'Days' of creation, uphold the deep structure of being.  Following, however, the Latin Scholastic reduction of angels to subsistent forms (e.g. Aquinas), and the Nominalist collapse of universal forms to either concepts or things (e.g. Ockham), mechanical 'nature' could be evacuated of formal causality (e.g. Newton), and held in a fixed correlation of the 'subjectivity' of conceptual thinking to the 'objectivity' of real things (e.g. Kant).  As early, however, as F.W.J. Schelling's 'Freedom Essay', G.W.F. Hegel's 'absolute identity' of Nature eternally sublated as the externality of Logic was first exploded by a metaphysical positivism that demanded a higher principle of divine and personal freedom (e.g. Kierkegaard), before the ground of all positive elements were subverted by a metaphysical negativism, which, from Heidegger to Derrida, carried out the nihilistic subversion of identity into difference, and being into nothing.  In its most acute form, Alain Badiou's subtractive mathematical ontology has released the 'multiple' of calculative situations to be reified by 'Speculative Realism' as a subject-less manifold of objects: first, in Quentin Meillasoux's hyper-chaos of ancestral objects, then in Graham Harman's 'Object-Oriented-Ontology', but, most recently, in new Speculative Realist philosophies of nature, including Iain Hamilton Grant, Timothy Morton, Ben Woodard, Eugene Thacker, and Reza Negarestani.  Following Tyler Tritten, the common mistake of all these Speculative Realist philosophies of nature is, I contend, the Badiouian subtraction of Schelling's personal freedom of substances into subjectless-objects.  To recover a more free and felicitous vision of visible Nature, this lecture will seek to develop a Neo-Origenian critique of recent Speculative Realist philosophies of nature, and propose an angelic physics, in which the angels uphold the holy middle of all things.

As Prologue to a Metaphysics of Patmos is appearing later this year here is an early version/part of chapter 3 in @ChurchLifeND @cosmostheinlost, along with a keynote @TRIERTIUM on vol 1 of the ensuing Trinitarian trilogy: churchlifejournal.nd.edu/articles/god-i… youtu.be/e4MESls4F0Q?si…

Look out for @johnmilbank3's forthcoming book 'Most Entanglings: Trinity', which promises, alongside my book 'Restoring Reason: Theology of Logic in Origen of Alexandria', to revive Origenian trinitarian speculation at the highest theological level.

I am finishing the final editorial revisions of my Czech translation of Klaus Hemmerle’s groundbreaking text Theses Towards a Trinitarian Ontology. It will be published in the second half of the year. This year marks the 50th anniversary of the original German edition (1976).
