• Resumen

  • Reader of Heidegger, Jean-Yves Lacoste reviews the notions of world and earth, which he considers insufficient to describe the experience of the sacred. According to him, Heidegger fails to break out of the secular horizon and slides towards paganism. Lacoste therefore enhances his topology with a third phenomenological place: the Kingdom. The believer’s life escapes the reign of the world and the earth to be configured by this Kingdom. His temporality opens on the eschaton. Living in liturgy, he is more in the face of God (coram Deo) than in the world. In this way, human identity is redefined: as the phenomenological description encompassing paradoxical phenomena, this identity must now be understood as constantly changing, not predefined, more than existant, capable of exceeding its native place. The question remains on whether for Lacoste, the irruption of transcendence subverts the world, that is to say, transfigures it, or it deconstructs it right through. Finally, while Lacoste omits Heidegger’s stance on transcendence, he does provide us with unprecedented tools to phenomenologically comprehend the way one considers the sacred.
