Theology Beyond Metaphysics: Transformative Semiotics of René Girard

This exploration of human origins delves into the intricate interplay between theology and metaphysics, drawing inspiration from the works of René Girard. By intertwining the insights of Charles Darwin's evolutionary theory with the timeless narrative of Cain and Abel, the authors create a compelling framework that challenges conventional wisdom.

Their thought-provoking analysis encourages a reevaluation of the symbolic meanings behind human actions, suggesting that our understanding of violence, sacrifice, and community lies at the heart of what it means to be human.
