Böcker av Emil L. Fackenheim

Points the way to Judaism's renewal in a world and an age in which all of our notions - about God, humanity, and revelation - have been severely challenged. This title tests the resources within Judaism for healing the breach between secularism and revelation after the Holocaust.

Emil Fackenheim's life work was to call upon the world at large to confront the Holocaust as an unprecedented assault on the Jewish people, Judaism, and all humanity. Here, he looks back on his life, at the profound and painful circumstances that shaped him as a philosopher and a committed Jewish thinker.
