Elie Wiesel
Author: Graham B. Walker
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
Discusses post-Holocaust theology in the light of Elie Wiesel's thought, particularly as expressed in three of his works: "Night", "The Oath", and "The Fifth Son". Analyzes the philosophies of Emil Fackenheim, Richard Rubenstein, Jürgen Moltmann, and Paul Van Buren in relation to the question: "How could God permit the Holocaust?" Expands on the image of "the wandering Jew" in Wiesel's works; the Holocaust survivor is identified with the wanderer, caught between the memory of the victims and a transcendent hope for the future. Contends that the Holocaust ushered in a twilight period in human history in which world identity is transitional, and that Wiesel presents the possibility for "new qualities of life" to emerge.

Adorno’s Philosophy of the Nonidentical
Author: Oshrat C. Silberbusch
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319956272
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 213
Book Description
This book focuses on a central notion in Theodor. W. Adorno’s philosophy: the nonidentical. The nonidentical is what our conceptual framework cannot grasp and must therefore silence, the unexpressed other of our rational engagement with the world. This study presents the nonidentical as the multidimensional centerpiece of Adorno’s reflections on subjectivity, truth, suffering, history, art, morality and politics, revealing the intimate relationship between how and what we think. Adorno’s work, written in the shadow of Auschwitz, is a quest for a different way of thinking, one that would give the nonidentical a voice – as the somatic in reasoning, the ephemeral in truth, the aesthetic in cognition, the other in society. Adorno’s philosophy of the nonidentical reveals itself not only as a powerful hermeneutics of the past, but also as an important tool for the understanding of modern phenomena such as xenophobia, populism, political polarization, identity politics, and systemic racism.
