My pleasure, Tessy, and thank you for your interest!

Thank you very much for sharing these videos. I’m not at a high level of understanding about anything and I’ve stumbled my way back to the church partly through reading Derrida’s Gift of Death and listening to his talk about prayer. I know Marion is a student of his and this is an exciting path forward to study as I continue to try and become a bit catholic again.

Ahah thank you for sharing these interviews. I am currently studying Marion’s work called The Erotic Phenomen. This is very difficult. It’s been 3 days now. I’ve dedicated 2 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the afternoon on this study. Currently on the part about Self-hate. I have the book, not an easy task, but very passionate.

Bravo. I, too, have no reason not to remain Catholic.

Hi there, I'm currently reading a lot of Marion in my gap year before I hopefully go to UChicago for Divinity School *fingers cross*, and I'm very curious as to when did you do these interviews? I see your channel uploads them sporadically, but they all same to be from the same time. I also see you offer online courses, did you make an online course with JLM?! b/c I would be very interested in purchasing that. Do you have more interviews you're going to upload? I would love to just know the story behind these interviews and ur relationship with him. Thank you very much!

Ethan - Thanks for your message. I hope it works out for you to attend UChicago and that is an exciting prospect. These videos were recorded in May of 2017 at UChicago. It had taken a while to edit the videos and put them on KZbin. Currently, I do not have any courses with Jean-Luc Marion on My Interior Castle, but I plan to create mini courses on phenomenology and metaphysics in the future, so stay tuned! The interviews I hosted with Prof. Marion were an effort to make his work more accessible to a wider audience and I'm glad that these videos have garnered interest over the past few years. Thanks again for your questions and blessings on your work! DW

He uses the term "Christian" and not Catholic. So he would just as soon be Lutheran or Anglican? Possibly. I find that Catholics are by and large content to attend Mass (the few who still do!) and they have fulfilled their obligations. Whereas Protestants are far more engaged in making their Christianity part of their life. Á mon avis.
