In this book Rose illuminates the extraordinary creativity of
Jewish intellectuals as they reevaluated Judaism with the tools of
a German philosophical tradition fast emerging as central to modern
intellectual life. While previous work emphasizes the "subversive"
dimensions of German-Jewish thought or the "inner antisemitism" of
the German philosophical tradition, Rose shows convincingly the
tremendous resources German philosophy offered contemporary Jews
for thinking about the place of Jews in the wider polity. Offering
a fundamental reevaluation of seminal figures and key texts, Rose
emphasizes the productive encounter between Jewish intellectuals
and German philosophy. He brings to light both the complexity and
the ambivalence of reflecting on Jewish identity and politics from
within a German tradition that invested tremendous faith in the
political efficacy of philosophical thought itself.
