Abstract

The paper aims to analyze the problems that religious truth, particularly Christian truth understood as an event, poses to the category of de re truth. How does the conception of truth 'as event' stand phenomenologically in relation to the contemporary analytical debate on truth? Statements in the catechism such as "true God and true man" referring to Jesus, or the same words attributed to Jesus in John's gospel (14:6) such as "I am the way, the truth or the life" how can they be understood in relation to the category of recently called 'dual character concepts'? Is there a difference between the notion of 'true warrior' and that of 'true God'? When is a person appropriately categorized as a true man? When is a person appropriately categorized as a true God? What is the relationship between faith and truth? [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
