There Is

- The Event and the Finitude of Appearing

Om There Is

¿A genuinely innovative contribution to philosophical accounts of subjectivity and temporality. Romano develops what he calls an `evential hermeneutics¿ that takes as its starting point the life-changing events that upend our world. He studies the structure of these events in terms of the genuine change and novelty that they open up, distinguishing them from mere occurrences, which can be explained as a subject realizing pre-existing possibilities. Because such events introduce radically new possibilities by transforming me and my world, Romano argues that they must be understood as establishing a world rather than as happening in the world.¿¿Shane Mackinlay, Catholic Theological College, University of Divinity, Melbourne
