'The publication of Martin Buber's I and Thou was a great event in
the religious life of the West.' Reinhold Niebuhr Martin Buber
(1897-19) was a prolific and influential teacher and writer, who
taught philosophy at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem from 1939
to 1951. Having studied philosophy and art at the universities of
Vienna, Zurich and Berlin, he became an active Zionist and was
closely involved in the revival of Hasidism. Recognised as a
landmark of twentieth century intellectual history, I and Thou is
Buber's masterpiece. In this book, his enormous learning and wisdom
are distilled into a simple, but compelling vision. It proposes
nothing less than a new form of the Deity for today, a new form of
human being and of a good life. In so doing, it addresses all
religious and social dimensions of the human personality.
