Nathan Rotenstreich: Philosophy, History, and Reality -- Epilogue: The Old Angel -- Works Cited -- IndexThe Angel of Jewish History casts a philosophical gaze upon the relationship between the traditional Jewish past and the present through the metaphysical worldviews of five formative Jewish studies scholars: Yosef Hayim Yerushalmi, Amos Funkenstein, Gershom Scholem, Baruch Kurzweil, and Nathan Rotenstreich. Their hermeneutic worldviews and writings deal with the nature and formation of modern Judaism, the Wissenschaft des Judentums, historicism, the image of the Jewish past and tradition, secularization, and God's status in present-day Jewish reality. In this volume, these issues are explored against the background of the tense discourse between the perception of modern Jewish reality as a break from the past and tradition and the argument for continuity despite the changes and developments of modernity.Emunot.HistoryPhilosophyElectronic books.HistoryPhilosophy.901Miron Ronny943104Grave IvanBühler Martin P.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910453823803321The angel of Jewish history2450910UNINA
