Judaism and the West

- From Hermann Cohen to Joseph Soloveitchik

Bag om Judaism and the West

Grappling with the place of Jewish philosophy at the margin of religious studies, Robert Erlewine examines the work of five Jewish philosophersΓÇöHermann Cohen, Martin Buber, Franz Rosenzweig, Abraham Joshua Heschel, and Joseph SoloveitchikΓÇöto bring them into dialogue within the discipline. Emphasizing the tenuous place of Jews in European, and particularly German, culture, Erlewine unapologetically contextualizes Jewish philosophy as part of the West. He teases out the antagonistic and overlapping attempts of Jewish thinkers to elucidate the philosophical and cultural meaning of Judaism when others sought to deny and even expel Jewish influences. By reading the canon of Jewish philosophy in this new light, Erlewine offers insight into how Jewish thinkers used religion to assert their individuality and modernity.
