Description
Summary:The culture of the Weimar Republic Period in Germany can be described as a "Streitkultur", which means that intense discussions, debates and controversies were a strong feature of its cultural life. This collection of documents and lecture notes pertaining to three of Martin Buber's talks as well as a report on a public discussion with him was originally put together by opponents of Buber in the "Philosophical Group" of Oskar Goldberg (1885-1953) and intended to form part of a public campaign against him which, however, they were not able to realize. Two of the talks documented here have never been published before. As a valuable addition to our knowledge of Buber in that decisive periode of his life devoted to translating the Bible together with Franz Rosenzweig until the latter's death in 1929, they provide a vivid picture of the conflicting viewpoints of those tumultuous years.
