The Miracle in Jean-Luc Marion’s Proposal

The Necessary Possibility of Phenomena’s Gratuitousness

Abstract

In Jean-Luc Marion’s phenomenology, the miracle is not characterised by rarity and exceptionality, but rather presents the same dynamic as the event and the saturated phenomenon in their revelatory aspect. The miracle is rooted in the relationship between (im)possibility and actuality, thus prompting a reconsideration of the question of the relationship between phenomenology and theology, as well as the verification of the weight of finite singularity in the work of the French philosopher.
