Abstract

Charles Winquist, more than anyone else, embodied what might be termed the "Syracuse school" of theology and was deeply influential upon his students there. Although Winquist was disconnected to the church, his work in theology remained close to the church and in his writing he explored the intersection of radical theology and postmodern theory, particularly on the concept of "desire." This chapter introduces him to a novice reader.
