Opis

A reinterpretation of thinkers from Benjamin and Rosenzweig to Simone Weil and Derrida
Judaism and Modernity: Philosophical Essays challenges the philosophical presentation of Judaism as the sublime 'other' of modernity. In Judaism and Modernity Gillian Rose develops a philosophical alternative to deconstruction and post-modernism by critically re-engaging the social and political issues at stake in every reconstruction.
