Subjugating Subjectivity: Why Wright’s Critical Realism is Not Critical Enough
This analysis of N. T. Wright’s epistemological model – labelled critical realism – argues that Wright has lamentably failed the ambitious goal of mediating the two epistemic poles of external ‘objective’ reality and internal ‘subjective’ interpretation. The issues raised by scholars of the so-calle...

| Resumo: | This analysis of N. T. Wright’s epistemological model – labelled critical realism – argues that Wright has lamentably failed the ambitious goal of mediating the two epistemic poles of external ‘objective’ reality and internal ‘subjective’ interpretation. The issues raised by scholars of the so-called ‘critical’ end of the dichotomy have subsequently failed to be considered to any significant degree and, instead, Wright ultimately reverts to an objectivist realism of the sort he decries. He privileges the assumptions on the ‘realism’ end and merely gestures toward the critical. This becomes especially clear in his study of Jesus’ resurrection, where his apologetic and historical discussions demonstrate a reliance upon an assumed objectivist and empiricist methodology. |
