Chrono-Sophia – Thinking the End of Times
Thinking the end of times refers to several key questions like the type of time (cyclic or linear), the beginning of times, the announces of its end, and the eschatological destiny of individual man, the mankind and the world… that is probably some of the largest and deepest matters.

This is written in most part after Jean Borella’s work (in particular, Marxisme et sens chrétien de l’histoire, Paris : L’Harmattan, 2016, pp. 225-285, for the first four paragraphs) and focuses and emphasizes some Christian original views on these matters.
