Abstract
- My goal is to explicate the ontological framework of the human self that is required for radical discipleship. I do this through two notions: Christian love (agape) and Christian humility. To that end I explore the other- and the self-regarding aspects of humility and love, posing a problem for love and humility rooted in our typical notions of self-interest and phronesis. I then propose a way of rethinking humility and love in the context of a sketch of solidarity and an alternative ontology of the self. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
