Publisher's Synopsis

This book examines three aspects of Rolle's thinking used throughout this work: his ontology, phenomenology, and sound ecology. These facets of his work invoke both a way of understanding being in the world, an opening up of the body in queer ways to experience the divine, and a way to consider divine contemplation in terms of singing the body.

Queering Richard Rolle considers how Rolle navigates queer, eremitic conduct in order to create an identity always in process
