Dear all, 

Please distribute widely. Apologies for cross-posting. 

Our second issue of Inscriptions, a peer-reviewed journal dedicated to philosophy, psycho-analysis and the arts, is now available at https://www.tankebanen.no/inscriptions/index.php/inscriptions/issue/view/3

When Abraham decided to set out to murder his son Issac, and in so doing obey the words of his God, he by the same token betrayed the laws of his community; conversely had he adhered to those laws, he would have betrayed his own, most deeply constituted truth and being. To Søren Kierkegaard the meaning of Abraham’s sacrificial act was key to understand faith. This issue of Inscriptions interrogates the notion of a leap of faith through essays by Jørgen Veisland, on the profound effects such a leap can have on a subjectivity characterised by relational and indeterminate differences; Siobhan Doyleon faith; Kresten Lundsgaard-Leth on love; Alexander Velichkov on the sublime; and Tidhar Nir on the uncanny. We are also thrilled to present searching poetry by Daniel Fraser and that icon of the deconstructionist movement, Christopher Norris.
