Sono due le domande che dovrebbe porsi il lettore che affronta l' opera di Heschel. Vuole davvero sapere ciò che vuole? Vuole davvero uscire dal disorientamento (non privo di vantaggi, come ogni nevrosi) in cui tutti oggi vivono? Vuole davvero abrogare i «giubilei di frustrazioni»? Vuole davvero sentirsi staccato dai possessi diventati «emblemi delle sue repressioni»? Se l'offuscamento dei fini (suoi e altrui) gli è troppo caro, rinunci alla l...

Published by the University of Nebraska Press as a Jewish Publication Society book.

In un mondo dominato dalla tecnica, che consuma il tempo per guadagnare spazio, il sabato rappresenta la rivincita del tempo sullo spazio e del sacro sul profano, l'occasione per deporre il giogo della fatica ed entrare in contatto con una dimensione che è presagio dell'eternità. Muovendo da una riflessione sul valore che questo giorno riveste nella cultura ebraica, Heschel affronta con straordinaria competenza teologica, filosofica e letterar...

Uiteindelijk verliet hij de gesloten geloofsgemeenschap waarin h...

God in Search of Man combines scholarship with lucidity, reverence, and compassion as Dr. Heschel discusses not man's search for God but God's for man--the notion of a Chosen People, an idea which, he writes, "signi...

Heschel's classic work on Maimonides, originally published in Berlin during the thirties, in one of the few scholarly biographies available of the great medieval philosopher.

This first collection of Heschel's essays - compiled, edited and with an introduction by his daughter Susannah Heschel, is a stunning reminder of the virtuosity of one of the most well respected minds in Judaic studies.

The Prophets is widely recognized as a masterpiece of biblical scholarship. Heschel attempts to understand the thoughts, feelings, and impressions of each of the progphets, presenting the reader with a sense of their very being. He effectively achieves a balance between the objective supernatural and the subjective human situation, and presents a unique discussion of Amos, Hosea, Isaiah, Micah, Jeremiah, and Habakkuk and their particular chall...
