Abstract
This is a reply to Sue Mitchell and Francisco J. Eiroa-Orosa’s ‘Love
your enemy.’ The latter seeks to explore the self-transcending
potential of altruistic behaviour through a dialogical paradigm. It
not only initiates fresh discussion on the subject of altruism, but
also advances new discussion on Bakhtinian aesthetics. For the
continuation of this forward momentum, we suggest a more
nuanced approach to the placement of the ‘researcher’ within
the applied methodological matrix. Similarly, we also advocate
for the synthesising of research tools, often appropriated by theological
studies, into said methodological matrix.
This is a reply to:

aesthetic discourse analysis of self-transcendence in values-motivated
altruism.” Global Discourse https://doi.org/10.1080/23269995.2018.
