Daniel Minch considers the theological dimension of William Desmond's philosophy, particularly within the context of twentieth-century Catholic theology. After Vatican II, theologians recognized the impoverished nature of thinking about creation and the creator in dualistic terms. Building on both Edward Schillebeeckx's hermeneutic interpretation of Christian faith and on Desmond's fourfold sense of being, Minch opens a way of thinking the relationship between immanent nature and transcendence beyond modernity's postulatory finitism.
