Description

Book Synopsis
Emil Fackenheim was the last in a long line of Jewish philosophers to emerge from Germany, the modern center of Western philosophy, following Moses Mendelssohn, Leo Baeck, and Martin Buber. This book explores Fackenheim's rigorous pursuit of a philosophical response to the tragedy of the Holocaust.

Trade Review
Emil Fackenheim assumed the impossible task of responding to the Nazi annihilation of the Jews of Europe. He engaged in the pursuit of the philosophical implications of the slaughter of the Jewish people on Jewish thought, Judaism, the Jewish people, the State of Israel, and on philosophy itself.
