Intersecting Pathways

"Marc A. Krell analyzes the theologies of four twentieth-century Jewish thinkers - Hans Joachim Schoeps, Franz Rosenzweig, Richard Rubenstein, and Irving Greenberg - who had constructed theologies based on their interaction with Christian thought and culture. Their work reflects a common attempt to understand the impact of Christian culture on the historical events prior to and following the Holocaust and to reevaluate the relationship between the two religions in light of a history of theological anti-Judaism and modern, racial antisemitism." "Krell explores the relationship between theological and cultural formulations of Jewish identity by drawing upon cultural studies as well as history, philosophy, and theology to provide a more complete picture of modern Jewish self-definition in relation to Christianity."--BOOK JACKET.
