Summary: | The philosophy of dialogue is often presented as an attitude towards the world within the framework of the relationship "I and Thou". Martin Buber represented this approach in his works. Meanwhile, for other philosophers, especially Cohen and Rosenzweig, dialogue is unthinkable outside of a more complete system of person relations, which also includes He, She, They, We. A particularly sharp controversy unfolded between Rosenzweig and Buber around the place of It in the dialogical process. Rosenzweig not only criticized Buber’s belittling of It and ignoring the deep connection of the I-Thou and I-It relations, but also built his own philosophy of the third person, which is an important element of his philosophical system as a whole. In particular, Rosenzweig showed the extraordinary role of the It in the construction of language. Rosenzweig’s concept of It not only challenges Buber’s It, but also echoes Freud’s Id. Rosenzweig’s philosophy can be seen in many respects as an attempt to harmonize the relationship between I and It, i.e., between the selfhood of a separated person and the closeness of the world completed in itself. |
