Denken Im Zeitalter Der Gottesfinsternis: Essays Zur Judischen Religionsphilosophie Und Ethik Nach Der Shoah [German]

By Christian Wiese

The Shoah, the genocide in the heart of Europe, which the philosopher Martin Buber has characterized as the "big wound in the order of being", poses one of the central challenges to religious, ethical and political thinking until this very day. The essays assembled in this volume give an insight into the confrontation of very different Jewish intellectuals in Europe and the USA with the theodicy question after Auschwitz: Hannah Arendt, Margarete Susman, Hans Jonas, Gunther Anders, Abraham J. Heschel, Emil L. Fackenheim or Elie Wiesel. The focus lies on the link between theological or religious philosophical reflections regarding the question of God and discourse on human responsibility in view of the ethical and political problems of our time.
