A Phenomenological Study of Hebrew Literature

Produktbeschreibung

The book offers a new theory of prayer, based on an analysis of the actual experience of praying individuals rather than on the relationship with God. The thesis is that prayer is a primary phenomenon conveying that humans are praying beings. Avi Sagi is Professor of Philosophy and founder of the Interdisciplinary Graduate Program in Hermeneutics and Cultural Studies at Bar-Ilan University as well as a faculty member at the Shalom Hartman Institute in Jerusalem. He has written and edited many books and articles in philosophy and Jewish thought, among them Albert Camus and the Philosophy of the Absurd, Jewish Religion after Theology, and Tradition vs. Traditionalism.
