The Idea of Humanity

Kluback attempts to prove, in this first volume, that 20th century German philosophy, and its considerable ramifications beyond Germany, are impossible to properly understand without appreciating the influence of Hermann Cohen. In this he succeeds admirably. -- Dominique Bourel, REVUE DE M?TAPHYSIQUE ET DE MORALE * Midstream: A Quarterly Jewish Review *
This book explores the rich intellectual life world of Hermann Cohen, one of the more regrettable victims of our forgetfulness of the recent past. William Kluback possesses the rare ability to revive that past and to return his readers to a humanist tradition that was never completed but brutally interrupted. -- Louis DuprÈ, Yale University * Midstream: A Quarterly Jewish Review *
Since the author highlights the contribution of previously neglected thinkers from the heartland of philosophy and theology, it repairs a significant omission in the English-speaking world. -- Louis DuprÈ, Yale University * International Studies in Philosophy *
With great sensitivity, Kluback's essays open new perspectives...In this respect Kluback's book is a trailblazer, and one hopes that other scholars will follow in his wake. -- Louis DuprÈ, Yale University * Philosophy of Religion *
You will have my laudatory review. Prof. Kluback is an expert in this field of studies and his book is very brilliant, informative, well done and stimulating. -- Dominique Bourel, REVUE DE M?TAPHYSIQUE ET DE MORALE
