Description:
Written over a period of forty years, Martin Buber's essays represent a dual attempt: first, to clarify the relation of certain aspects of Jewish thinking and Jewish living to contemporary intellectual movements, and second, to analyze critically those trends within Jewish life, which, surrendering to many ideologies, tend to weaken the teachings of Israel.
Expand description
Topics range from "The Faith of Judaism", "Plato and Isaiah", and "Hebrew Huamanism". Buber speaks out openly, sharply criticizing false or distorted conceptions, guiding his reader to the very heart of each issue.
