Dynamic Repetition – History and Messianism in Modern Jewish Thought, Paperback / softback Book

Dynamic Repetition – History and Messianism in Modern Jewish Thought Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

A fine example of the best scholarship that lies at the intersection of philosophy, religion, and history.  Dynamic Repetition proposes a new understanding of modern Jewish theories of messianism across the disciplines of history, theology, and philosophy.

The book explores how ideals of repetition, return, and the cyclical occasioned a new messianic impulse across an important swath of late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century German Jewish thought.

To grasp the complexities of Jewish messianism in modernity, the book focuses on diverse notions of “dynamic repetition” in the works of Franz Rosenzweig, Walter Benjamin, Franz Kafka, and Sigmund Freud, and their interrelations with basic trajectories of twentieth-century philosophy and critical thought.
