Genocide in Jewish Thought
ISBN: 9781107011045 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Among the topics explored in this book are ways of viewing the soul, the relation between body and soul, environmentalist thought, the phenomenon of torture, and the philosophical and theological warrants for genocide. Presenting an analysis of abstract modes of thought that have contributed to genocide, the book argues that a Jewish model of concrete thinking may inform our understanding of the abstractions that can lead to genocide.

ISBN: 9781107040748 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 334 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book articulates a deeper understanding of the phenomenon of Jew hatred as a metaphysical aspect of the human soul.

Open Wounds: The Crisis of Jewish Thought in the Aftermath of the Holocaust
ISBN: 9780295986456 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In this book, David Patterson sets out to describe why Jews must live -- but especially think -- in a way that is distinctly Jewish. For Patterson, the primary responsibility of post-Holocaust Jewish thought is to avoid thinking in the same categories that led to the attempted extermination of the Jewish people. The Nazis, he says, were not anti- Semitic because they were racists; they were racists because they were anti-Semitic, and their anti-Semitism was furthered by a Western ontological tradition that made God irrelevant by placing the thinking ego at the center of...

Drawing on more than three hundred Hebrew roots, the author shows that Jewish thought employs Hebrew concepts and categories that are altogether distinct from those that characterize the Western speculative tradition.

ISBN: 9780815631835 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 211 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Emil Fackenheim was the last in a long line of Jewish philosophers to emerge from Germany, the modern center of Western philosophy, following Moses Mendelssohn, Leo Baeck, and Martin Buber. In this revealing book, David Patterson explores Fackenheim's rigorous pursuit of a philosophical response to the tragedy of the Holocaust. Fackenheim's writing sheds light on the tensions between Jewish thinking and German philosophy, illustrating how elements of the latter were used by the Nazis to justify Jewish annihilation. In addition, he emphasizes the important implications of defining Jewish...
