Bücher der Reihe Martin Buber Library

In this work, Buber expounds upon and defends the Zionist experiment - a federal system of communities on a co-operative basis. He looks to the anarchists Proudhon, Kropotkin and Gustav Landauer, but selects only that part of their doctrines appropriate to his case.

This text acquaints the reader with Martin Buber's works on scripture and with his endeavour to elucidate the meanings of biblical ideas in ages past and in our own time.

Written over 40 years, this text seeks to: clarify the relation of certain aspects of Jewish thinking and Jewish living to contemporary intellectual movements; and to analyze those trends within Jewish life, which, surrendering to many ideologies, tend to weaken the teachings of Israel.

This volume covers Martin Buber's views on psychology and psychotherapy, exploring the work of practitioners such as Freud and Jung. Contents include: distance and relation; healing through meeting; Buber and Jung; elements of the interhuman; and guilt and guilt feelings.

Beginning with Buber's seminal essay on mysticism, this book offers texts down the centuries from oriental, pagan, Gnostic, Eastern Orthodox, Catholic, Jewish and Muslim sources. It aims to convey some quality of an experience that is essentially beyond the power of words to capture.

Martin Buber contrasts the ""faith of Abraham"" with the ""faith of St Paul"" and ponders the possibilities of reconciliation between the two. He offers a sincere and reverent Jewish view of Christ and of the unique and decisive character of His message to Jew and Gentile.

Previously published by Atheneum in 1981, this is a religious chronicle in fictional form, with Hasidic rabbis as its heroes. Buber unfolds the inner world of messianic longing and expectation that characterized Judaism then and continues to characterize it to the present day. In the MARTIN BUBER LIBRARY series.
