The volume brings together four of Schweid’s most original and influential philosophical essays and an interview with him that together express his fundamental outlook: the faith of a secular Jew, freely choosing loyalty to his or her national culture and drawing on Jewish heritage to inform how to act responsibly toward one’s neighbor, one’s people, the world, and God. The themes span the gamut of Schweid’s life work: the existential loneliness of the modern Jew; Judaism as a culture; faith in light of the Holocaust; and appreciation for secular humanism with awareness of its shortcomings, given the enduring legacy of the Jewish biblical heritage.Library of Contemporary Jewish Philosophers1.Jewish philosophyPhilosophy, MedievalElectronic books.Jewish philosophy.Philosophy, Medieval.181/.06Tirosh-Samuelson Hava1950-875598Hughes Aaron W.1968-882364Levin Leonard963974MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910465429903321Eliezer Schweid2186098UNINA
