The synagogue buildings of Kentucky tell much about the experience of Kentucky Jewry. Synagogues, especially in smaller towns, have often served as the only setting available for a wide variety of communal activities.

Through the thought of the Ludwig Wittgenstein, Iris Murdoch, J.M. Bernstein, and Charles Taylor, Ashkenazy uncovers the importance and significance of such concepts as transcendence, lose, self, other, love, and home for establishing and maintaining a human life and world, and recovering it, should it be lost. Written with both clarity and academic rigour, this book offers novel ideas, firmly grounded in existing philosophical literature, and is intended for both professional scholars and general readers of Améry.Continental philosophyWorld War, 1939-1945Continental PhilosophyHistory of World War II and the HolocaustContinental philosophy.World War, 1939-1945.Continental Philosophy.History of World War II and the Holocaust.834.91409141.3Ashkenazy Yoav1973-1271324MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQ9910574078303321The death of transcendence2994728UNINA
