User’s Reviews

Editorial Reviews: Review Rosenzweig’s life combined a fabulous spiritual search, a profound engagement with philosophy as well as with Judaism, and enormous accomplishment in the face of overwhelming physical handicaps. His thought is both illuminated by and realized in his amazing life. Nahum Glatzer has brought both the life and the thought together in this marvelous collection. There is no better introduction to this seminal Jewish thinker. –Hilary Putnam, Harvard UniversityGlatzer’s anthology not only makes available an important array of texts; it also presents Rosenzweig’s life in a way that is as moving as it is informative. –Michael Morgan, Indiana UniversityThis is an excellent and important volume. I’m very glad you have brought it back into print–especially in an edition that is so faithful to the original. –Robert Gluck, University at Albany About the Author The late Nahum N. Glatzer was Lown Professor of Judaic Studies, Brandeis University and University Professor, Boston University.Paul Mendes-Flohr is Professor of Jewish Thought, Hebrew University.

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐It’s probably safe to say that most Americans have never heard of Franz Rosenzweig. I surely hadn’t, until I came across his name multiple times in books by David Goldman (

⭐, and

⭐). In the latter book, Goldman goes so far as to recommend reading Rosenzweig and putting his own book in the recycle bin.Rosenzweig is known primarily for his early masterpiece,

⭐, which is extremely tough reading. It has been described as a graduate course in philosophy and theology.Enter Glatzer’s introduction, which at least makes it possible to begin understanding this man, who may well be one of the intellectual and spiritual titans of the last century. I find that the more of Rosenzweig I read, the more I want to know. David Goldman is a brilliant man in his own right, and he spent a number of years studying Rosenzweig.Just to whet your appetite a bit: Rosenzweig is one of the very few thinkers I have come across who regards both Judaism and Christianity as true and valid religions. He describes the differences between them, but is convinced that both can and do lead to a knowledge of God and redemption. Another thought of his: writing is better than reading, writing poetry is better than plain writing, and living life is better than writing poetry. That’s one of his biggest points: don’t get lost in the words and the books; we are called to live life according to God’s love for us.This book is a terrific accomplishment.

⭐This is a book that really narrate some theories in the Psychoanalysis and the Psycho therapy. The Work is very easy to understand. I strongly recommend.
