Editat de Sharon Portnoff, Jim Diamond, Martin Yaffe
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 27 feb 2008
Emil L. Fackenheim: Philosopher, Theologian, Jew is a scholarly tribute to Fackenheim’s memory. Fackenheim’s combination of erudition and generosity served to inspire a lifetime of philosophical inquiry, and a number of his students are represented in this volume. The volume, in order to provide a forum through which to introduce his thought to a broader audience, covers a wide spectrum of Fackenheim’s work including biographical, philosophical, and theological aspects of his thought that have not been addressed adequately in the past. Elie Wiesel, a close personal friend to Fackenheim for over 30 years, has provided the Foreword for the volume.

Recenzii

“The overall aim of the book, ‘to provide a forum through which to introduce Fackenheim’s though to a broader audience’ (5), is well served by the scope and depth of the essays gathered here, a good many of which were written by former students of Fackenheim for whom their teacher’s legacy clearly provides a continuing provocation.”
