Produktbeschreibung
This book argues that the Christian tradition can also furnish a theological analysis of pornography as a theological reality, which uncovers these unaddressed dimensions concerning the cultural challenge posed by pornography. In addition, it argues that theology’s vocabulary will also yield surprising analyses that overturn these three presumptions. Ultimately, the book argues that pornography distorts the very act on which it trades, namely the viewing of the sexual act. More specifically, it states that pornography is not sexual, erotic or embodied, arguing instead that it is Christological, mimetic and divinizing. In making these critiques, Christian theology also declares that a properly theological engagement with pornography will involve the transformation of grazing into beholding.
