Description

In this book, 19 prominent representatives of each side in the basic division among Strauss's followers explore his contribution to political philosophy and Jewish thought. The volume presents the most extensive analysis yet published of Strauss's religious heritage and how it related to his work, and includes Strauss's previously unpublished 'Why We Remain Jews,' an extraordinary essay concerned with the challenge posed to Judaism by modern secular thought. The extensive introduction interrelates the major themes of Strauss's thought.

Reviews

  • This assembly of critiques . . . could well serve as a pointer to the conflicts engendered by a system of thinking that strove to challenge the modern world from an unfashionable standpoint.
