Theology and Metaphysics in a Postsecular Episteme

The main topic of the study is the relationship between theology and philosophy in the perspective of opposing critical and speculative approaches, as well as the conceptual relationship between metaphysical criticism and the postsecular paradigm. The object of the study is theoretical concepts reflecting paradigms of the relationship between theology and philosophy in the history of thought and metaphysical concepts relevant to philosophical discourse on the postsecular as postmetaphysical. The author examines in detail such aspects of the topic as the typology of the relationship between theology and philosophy according to S. Vsholek, P. Tillich's method of correlation of theology and philosophy, and D. Barber's paradigms of relation between theology and philosophy. Particular attention is paid to the consideration of the concept of postsecularity and its impact on the understanding of the relationship between theology and philosophy. The study uses comparativist methodology, poststructuralist methodology of deconstruction and interpretation of basic theological and philosophical paradigms, typological analysis, discourse analysis. The novelty of the study lies in the author's proposal of the concept of theology of philosophy as the fundamental questioning underlying both theology and philosophy.
