Annotation: A groundbreaking, highly original work of postmodern feminist theology from one of the most important and highly regarded authors in the field. "The Face of the Deep "is a deconstruction of the Christian doctrine of creation from the idea that a transcendent Lord unilaterally created the universe out of nothing. Catherine Keller's impassioned, graceful meditation helps develop an alternative representation of the cosmic creative process. Keller draws upon Hebrew myths of creation from chaos, or the deep, engaging along the way the political and the mystical, the literary and the scientific, the sexual and the racial. In doing so she also draws upon the work of a number of postmodern and feminist continental philosophers including Heidegger, Donna Haraway and Luce Irigaray.
