Herder Editorial La resurreccin del Jess judo
El Jesús cristiano resucitó al tercer día. Sin embargo, fueron necesarios dos mil años para que resucitara el Jesús judío. Cuáles han sido las consecuencias de este olvido?Ágnes Heller aborda en este ensayo filosófico lo que a su juicio es uno de los mayores misterios de memoria y olvido, deteniéndose especialmente en el detalle de las fuentes que consulta.Propone una interpretación radicalmente nueva de un texto de siempre y busca en las fuentes de la Historia para descubrir a la persona cuyas enseñanzas son conocidas por los Evangelios y que fue ejecutada por los romanos.Con el fin de construir un escenario posible de reconciliación, intenta desmontar la idea deicida de los judíos, en la que el cristianismo formó su identidad por diferencia con aquellos. Dice la autora: Cuando los cristianos y los judíos recuperen al Jesús judío, será un gesto de la memoria colectiva que no se dirigirá al pasado, sino al futuro. Si desde ahora el recuerdo es éste, nuestro futuro será trans

Rowman & Littlefield The Time Is Out of Joint: Shakespeare as Philosopher of History
The Time Is Out of Joint handles the Shakespearean oeuvre from a philosophical perspective, finding that Shakespeare's historical dramas reflect on issues and reveal puzzles which were taken up by philosophy proper only in the centuries following them. Shakespeare's extraordinary handling of time and temporality, the difference between truth and fact, that of theory, and that of interpretation and revelatory truth are evaluated in terms of Shakespeare's own conjectural endeavors, and are compared with early modern, modern, and postmodern thought. Heller shows that modernity, which recognized itself in Shakespeare only from the time of Romanticism, found in Shakespeare's work a revelatory character which marked the end of both metaphysical system-building and a tragic reckoning with the inaccessibility of an absolute, timeless truth. Heller distinguishes the four stages found in constantly unique relation in Shakespeare's work (historical, personal, political, and existential) and probes their significance as time comes to fall "out of joint" and may be again set aright. Rather than initially bestowing upon Shakespeare the dubious honorary title of philosopher, Heller probes the concretely situated reflections of characters who must face a blind and irrational fate either without taking responsibility for the discordance of time, or with a responsibility which may both transform history into politics, and set right the time which is out of joint. In the ruminations and undertakings of these characters, Shakespeare's dramas present a philosophy of history, a political philosophy, and a philosophy of (im)moral personality. Heller weighs each as distinctly modern confrontations with the possibility of truth and virtue within a human historical condition no less multifarious for its momentariness.
