Peter J Leithart: Solomon Amongst the Postmoderns
This is Dr. Leithart's most recent book, and it is an addition to the conversation on postmodernism. Many christian responses have been variously set against the new directions that postmodernism offers. Dr. Leithart's book is decidedly more sympathetic, but for more biblical reasons. He has not drunk for the swamp of modern philosophy and been metamorphosised into a baptized Derrida, but rather wants us to view postmodernism positively, without being uncritical, because this is what Solomon in Ecclesiates would have us do.

Modernism offered us certainties without God. Science had it all sussed. Postmodernism has seen through the smoke. Ecclesiastes tells us that in the world we live in, created and managed by the Triune God, life is still vapour and elusive. We don't have it all buttoned down, neither can we. But God is the Lord, and our job is to rejoice and not bend to frustration and angst.
