Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Provides a short, accessible, and lively introduction to Jerusalem Jerusalem - A Brief History shows how Jewish, Christian, and Islamic scriptures confer providential meaning to the fate of the city and how modern Jerusalem is haunted by waves of biblical fantasy aiming at mutually exclusive status-quo rectification. It presents the major epochs of the history of Jerusalems urban transformation, inviting readers to imagine Jerusalem as a city that is not just sacred to the many groups of people who hold it dear, but as a united, unharmed place that is, in this sense, holy. Jerusalem - A Brief History starts in modern Jerusalemgiving readers a look at the city as it exists today. It goes on to tell of its emergence as a holy city in three different ways, focusing each time on another aspect of the biblical past. Next, it discusses the transformation of Jerusalem from a formerly Jewish temple city, condemned to oblivion by its Roman destroyers, into an imperially sponsored Christian theme park, and the afterlife of that same city under later Byzantine and Muslim rulers. Lastly, the book returns to present day Jerusalem to examine the development of the modern city under the Ottomans and the British, the history of division and reunification, and the ongoing jostling over access to, and sovereignty over, Jerusalems contested holy places.

Brosch. VIII, 280 S. Neubuch / New Copy // Dieser Band enthält Aufsätze zu Gedanken und Werk Martin Bubers (18781965). Die Beiträger sind sowohl bekannte Buber-Forscher als auch junge Wissenschaftler aus verschiedenen Disziplinen. Indem sie Bubers Vermächtnis in Beziehung zu ihren jeweiligen Forschungsgebieten setzen, arbeiten sie dasjenige in Bubers Denken heraus, das von bleibender Bedeutung ist. Die 16 Essays, in 6 Abschnitten geordnet, folgen grob der Chronologie von Bubers Werk. Sie spiegeln Verschiebungen in Bubers Interessenschwerpunkten und Veränderungen seiner Ansichten. Die Themenschwerpunkte dieses Bandes vermitteln unterschiedliche Zugänge zu Bubers Werk im allgemeinen, beschäftigen sich aber auch kritisch mit seiner Philosophie des Dialogs, seinen politischen Utopien und seinem Zugang zum Chassidismus.
