Abstract

In this text Jean-Luc Marion offers a critical reading of Derrida’s interpretation of Denys, clarifying his own position regarding mystical theology. Starting from an analysis of each one of the four objections presented by Derrida, Marion presents the third way, the way of de-nomination; he analyzes the status of praise and prayer; he distinguishes mysticism from the metaphysics of presence and from ontotheology; and outlines the features of the phenomenon of revelation.
