Whereas many other post-Holocaust Jewish thinkers - including
Derrida - have concentrated on a refusal of totality and
celebration of 'otherness', the poet and intellectual Franz
Baermann Steiner (1909-1952) combines this emphasis with an equal
stress on the 'need' for certain collectively acknowledged limits.
Next to the wider significance of this book for discussions of
Holocaust studies in relation to current theoretical and social
issues, it will also offer a new interpretation of Elias Canetti's
work. This is the first detailed examination of Steiner's
anthropology and philosophy and its relation to the work of his
close intellectual friend Canetti.
