The Star of Redemption, * which presents Franz Rosenzweig's system
of philosophy, begins with the sentence "from death, (vom Tode),
from the fear of death, originates all cognition of the All" and
concludes with the words "into life. " This beginning and this
conclusion of the book signify more than the first and last words
of philosophical books usually do. Taken together - "from death
into life" - they comprise the entire meaning of Rosenzweig's
philosophy. The leitmotif of this philosophy is the life and death
of the human being and not the I of philosophical idealism, where
man ultimately signifies "for ethics" no more than" . . . a point
to which it (ethics) relates its problems, as for science also he
(man) is only a particular case of its general laws. "l Rosenzweig
deals with the individual's actual existence, that which is termi
nated by death; he speaks of the individual's hic et nunc, of his
actions and decisions in the realm of concrete reality. This
philosophy is not an exposition of theoretical principles. It is
not concerned with man in general in abstract time, but rather with
the individual human being, designated by a proper name, living in
his particular time. ** Human existence in its finiteness and
temporalness forms the focus in which Rosenzweig's motif can be
gathered together."
