Kenotic Sacrifice and Philosophy: Paolo Diego Bubbio

Abstract

Paolo Diego Bubbio Sacrifice in the Post-Kantian Tradition. Perspectivism, Intersubjectivity, and Recognition . suny Series in Contemporary Continental Philosophy. Albany, ny : State University of New York Press, 2014. 212 pp. Paolo Diego Bubbio is an Italian philosopher who lives and works in Australia. His recent book, Sacrifice in the Post-Kantian Tradition , can be regarded as the mature expression of his long engagement with the topic of sacrifice. In this book Bubbio restructures the development of the notion of sacrifice in the nineteenth century (through a study of Kant, Solger, Hegel, Kierkegaard, and Nietzsche) in a way that emphasizes how all these thinkers are indebted to Kant and that highlights a group of recurring themes. The most important of these themes, Bubbio argues, is the emergence of a notion of sacrifice different from the standard one: not sacrifice as a destruction of something for the sake of something else, but a kenotic sacrifice, conceived as withdrawal or as a “making room” for others. The first question that presents itself to the reader is to clarify whether and to what extent the employment of sacrifice as the focus used to reconsider so wide a part of modern thought
