      abstract = {This book argues that a basic problem in thinking about  understanding, temporality, and selfhood is due to  "imitative" modes of thought found in much traditional  Western philosophy and theology. Given this, the book  examines the complex role that "image" and "imitation" play  in understanding and its world of meaning, the import of  language and narrative for configuring human temporality,  and the existence of self. The author's contention is that  when critically understood, mimesis, with its roots in  performative enactment, holds resources for reconsidering  these basic dimensions of human life beyond imitative  paradigms of thought.},
