Summary:

"Jewish philosophy has had a lasting impact on European culture, from its beginnings to the present. From the very beginning it was in contact with the Egyptians, the Babylonians and the Greeks, with Islamic philosophy and with Christian and European culture. Jewish philosophers were involved in the thought processes of the rational Enlightenment and in 19th and 20th century thought in Europe. After the catastrophe of the Holocaust, Jewish philosophy played a crucial role in the intellectual and moral "reconstruction" throughout Europe. Jewish philosophers had to come to terms with the deep shock of the Shoah, and they asked loudly how this catastrophe could have been possible. This book explores the intellectual dynamics of Jewish philosophy in Europe and most recently in America, and aims to recall how much this philosophy has contributed and continues to contribute to Western culture and civilization."--Publisher's description.
