An Introduction to Isaac Breuer’s Philosophy of Judaism

Cover of Alan L. Mittleman: Between Kant and Kabbalah (PDF)

This is the first full-length, systematic study in English of Isaac Breuer, a founder of Agudat Israel, whose intellectual achievements reflected the world of Franz Rosenzweig and Martin Buber in an Orthodox mirror. It sheds light on an often neglected aspect of German Jewry’s last phase and reclaims Breuer as a paradigmatic figure in the Jewish encounter with modernity.
