- Summary:
- "The biblical account of the events at Sinai and the figure of Moses is a foundational narrative of both Jewish and Western civilization, yet it has traditionally been analyzed only within a religious framework. In Apollo, Dionysus, and the Übermensch at Sinai: An Attempt at a Nietzschean Analysis, Dr. Rinat Harash offers a groundbreaking interpretation, applying Nietzsche's concepts of the Apollonian, the Dionysian, and the Übermensch to the revelation at Mount Sinai, the Golden Calf episode, the construction of the Tabernacle, and the elevated figure of Moses. Her study illuminates both the formative Jewish myth and Nietzsche's philosophy, forging a novel synthesis that bridges religion and art, bringing together the two opposing forces at the heart of Western culture-Jerusalem versus Athens"-- Provided by publisher.
