Collected here, these writings offer essential insights into the human condition as it is expressed in culture and society.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Buber's central focus in his sociological work is the relation between social interaction, or intersubjectivity, and the process of human creativity. Specifically, Buber seeks to define the nature and conditions of creativity, the conditions of authentic intersubjective social relations that nurture creativity in society and culture. He attempts to identify situations favorable to creativity that he believes exist to some extent in all cultures, though their fullest development occurs only rarely.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Buber considers the combination of open dialogue between human and human and a dialogue between man and God to be necessary for the crystallization of the common discourse that is essential for holding a free, just, and open society together.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Important for an understanding of Buber's thought, these writings—touching on education, religion, the state, and charismatic leadership—will be of profound value to students of sociology, philosophy, and religion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"sb-details\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/martin-buber-books\"\u003eMartin Buber\u003c\/a\u003e (all their books in stock)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1992\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e University of Chicago Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780226078076\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"University of Chicago Press","offers":[{"title":"Standard Secondhand — £23.95","offer_id":47900529655985,"sku":"SB-0226078078-C3","price":23.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/2669\/5345\/files\/0226078078.jpg?v=1788841809"},{"product_id":"chinese-tales-zhuangzi-sayings-and-parables-and-chinese-ghost-and-love-stories","title":"Chinese Tales: Zhuangzi - Sayings and Parables and Chinese Ghost and Love Stories","description":"\u003cp\u003eHere are two famous Chinese classics in versions provided by one of the most seminal and beloved philosophers of the twentieth century, Martin Buber, first published individually in German in 1910 and 1911, but never before available in English.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"sb-details\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/martin-buber-books\"\u003eMartin Buber\u003c\/a\u003e (all their books in stock)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1991\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 211\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Humanities Press International\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780391036994\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Humanities Press International","offers":[{"title":"Very Good — £14.38","offer_id":47900633628849,"sku":"SB-0391036998-C2","price":14.38,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/2669\/5345\/files\/0391036998.jpg?v=1789800957"},{"product_id":"on-the-bible-eighteen-studies","title":"On the Bible: Eighteen Studies","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis text acquaints the reader with Martin Buber's works on scripture and with his endeavour to elucidate the meanings of biblical ideas in ages past and in our own time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"sb-details\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/martin-buber-books\"\u003eMartin Buber\u003c\/a\u003e (all their books in stock)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1982\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 247\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Schocken Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780805206913\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Schocken Books","offers":[{"title":"Standard Secondhand — £14.97","offer_id":47901032284337,"sku":"SB-0805206914-C3","price":14.97,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/2669\/5345\/files\/0805206914.jpg?v=1788843196"},{"product_id":"i-and-thou","title":"I and Thou","description":"\u003cp\u003eToday considered a landmark of twentieth-century intellectual history, I and Thou is also one of the most important books of Western theology. In it, Martin Buber, heavily influenced by the writings of Frederich Nietzsche, united the proto-Existentialists currents of modern German thought with the Judeo-Christian tradition, powerfully updating faith for modern times. Since its first appearance in German in 1923, this slender volume has become one of the epoch-making works of our time. Not only does it present the best thinking of one of the greatest Jewish minds in centuries, but has helped to mold approaches to reconciling God with the workings of the modern world and the consciousness of its inhabitants. This work is the centerpiece of Buber's groundbreaking philosophy. It lays out a view of the world in which human beings can enter into relationships using their innermost and whole being to form true partnerships. These deep forms of rapport contrast with those that spring from the Industrial Revolution, namely the common, but basically unethical, treatment of others as objects for our use and the incorrect view of the universe as merely the object of our senses, experiences. Buber goes on to demonstrate how these interhuman meetings are a reflection of the human meeting with God. For Buber, the essence of biblical religion consists in the fact that, regardless of the infinite abyss between them, a dialogue between man and God is possible. Ecumenical in its appeal, I and Thou nevertheless reflects the profound Talmudic tradition from which it has emerged. For Judaism, Buber's writings have been of revolutionary importance. No other writer has so shaken Judaism from parochialism and applied it so relevantly to the problems and concerns of contemporary men. On the other hand, the fundamentalist Protestant movement in this country has appropriated Buber's \"I and Thou encounter\" as the implicit basis of its doctrine of immediate faith-based salvation. In this light, Martin Buber has been viewed as the Jewish counterpart to Paul Tillich. This is the original English translation, available in America only in this hardcover edition of I and Thou. Martin Buber considered Ronald Smith's the best of the English translations and it was prepared in the author's presence. The more poetic rendering, this translation can be looked at as the King James Version of Buber's I and Thou.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"sb-details\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/martin-buber-books\"\u003eMartin Buber\u003c\/a\u003e (all their books in stock)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1987\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 137\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e Collier Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780684182544\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Collier Books","offers":[{"title":"Standard Secondhand — £12.05","offer_id":47912573075633,"sku":"SB-0684182548-C3","price":12.05,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0618\/2669\/5345\/files\/0684182548.jpg?v=1789269686"},{"product_id":"il-cammino-delluomo-secondo-linsegnamento-chassidico","title":"Il cammino dell'uomo secondo l'insegnamento chassidico","description":"\u003cp\u003eUn autentico capolavoro in miniatura, il cui messaggio è inesauribile proprio perché parla al cuore di ogni uomo, in ogni tempo e in ogni situazione.
