Better than Wine Love, Poetry, and Prayer in

This book offers a hermeneutical reading of Franz Rosenzweig's 1921 masterpiece, The Star of Redemption . In her analysis, Yudit K. Greenberg draws on German idealistic and Romantic ideas as well as Kabbalistic philosophical strands in Rosenzweig's thinking. She portrays Rosenzweig as a transitional figure between philosophy and theology, Judaism and German culture, modernity and postmodernity.
