Rosenzweig's Bible: Reinventing Scripture for Jewish Modernity
ISBN: 9780521895262 / Angielski / Twarda / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Rosenzweig s Bible examines the high stakes, both theological and political, of Franz Rosenzweig s attempt to revivify the Hebrew Bible and use it as the basis for a Jewish textual identity. Mara Benjamin s innovative reading of The Star of Redemption places Rosenzweig s best-known work at the beginning of an intellectual trajectory that culminated in a monumental translation of the Bible, thus overturning fundamental assumptions that have long guided the appraisal of this titan of modern Jewish thought. She argues that Rosenzweig s response to modernity was paradoxical: he challenged his...

Iconoclasm and Iconoclash: Struggle for Religious Identity
ISBN: 9789004161955 / Angielski / Twarda / 508 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book focuses on iconoclastic controversies and, in particular, their impact on the creation of religious identities. In the history of Jewish, Christian and Muslim culture, religious identity was not only formed through historical claims, but also through the use of certain images: 'images of God', 'images of the others', and 'images of the self.' Moreover, in the struggle for religious identity these 'images' were time and again employed for the purpose of establishing distinct groups, both ortho- dox and deviant. At the same time, they supplied weapons in the theological debate and...

Franz Rosenzweig and the Systematic Task of Philosophy
ISBN: 9780521517096 / Angielski / Twarda / 354 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Benjamin Pollock argues that Franz Rosenzweig s The Star of Redemption is devoted to a singularly ambitious philosophical task: grasping the All the whole of what is in the form of a system. In asserting Rosenzweig s abiding commitment to a systematic conception of philosophy often identified with German Idealism, this book breaks rank with the assumptions about Rosenzweig s thought that have dominated the scholarship of the last decades. Indeed, the Star s importance is often claimed to lie precisely in the way it opposes philosophy s traditional drive for systematic knowledge and upholds...

The Star of Return: Judaism After the Holocaust
ISBN: 9780313276040 / Angielski / Twarda / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. At the heart of this sustained meditation that touches on aspects of the history, present state, and possible future of Judaism is Rabbi Dow Marmur's conviction that Judaism is in the midst of a paradigm shift. Rabbi Marmur contends that whereas the Holocaust marked the beginning of the tragic end of the old paradigm of exile, so the establishment of the State of Israel points to the beginning of something new. The Jews' return to the land of Israel has great religious significance in that halakhah, the Jewish legal tradition, has been superceded by mitzvah, the Jews' covenantal response...
