MORENO FERNANDEZ, Agustín. IDOLS AND SACRIFICES, A FORGOTTEN GIRARD. Univ. philos. [online]. 2018, vol.35, n.70, pp.85-102. ISSN 0120-5323. https://doi.org/10.11144/javeriana.uph35-70.isgo.
Beyond the stereotypes and simplifications of René Girard’s work, this paper defends the critical, independent and complex character of his thought. One year after his death and in the 25 th anniversary of his dialogue with several liberation theologians, we come back to the proceedings of the meeting. In this volume we can recognize the richness and nuances of Girard’s thinking, exemplified in his perspective on the Christ’s Passion, that he originally regarded as a non-sacrificial narrative, and then accepted as sacrificial, but keeping his own denunciation of the logic of sacrifice and agreeing with the theologians present at the meeting about its relation with the persistence of poverty, exclusion, and indifference.
