- Abstract
- In the second volume of Homo Sacer, entitled The Kingdom and the Glory, Agamben bestows a central role upon the interpretation of this original economy of salvation in Schelling’s Philosophy of Revelation. He even writes that his research aims to “make intelligible an affirmation by Schelling that has gone unheeded until now”. According to Agamben, “If we do not understand the close link that unites oikonomia and providence, it is not possible to measure the novelty of Christian theology”. Why would it be so important today to have such a confrontation with economic theology? Is that orientation justified to better take into account the Schellingian legacy for our time? Or is it only an effect produced by a contemporary reconstruction of a supposed theologico-political background of positive philosophy of history? These are the question our contribution will try to answer.
