Summary
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. Christopher M. Roman is Associate Professor of English at Kent State University, USA.
