Free Download History, Metahistory, and Evil: Jewish Theological Responses to the Holocaust (New Perspectives in Post-Rabbinic Judaism) by Barbara Krawcowicz
English | January 26, 2021 | ISBN: 1644694816 | 242 pages | MOBI | 3.15 Mb
Much post-Holocaust Jewish thought published in North America has assumed that the Holocaust shattered traditional religious categories that had been used by Jews to account for historical catastrophes. But most traditional Jewish thinkers during the war saw no such overwhelming of tradition in the death and suffering delivered to Jews by Nazis. Through a comparative reading of postwar North American and wartime Orthodox Jewish texts about the Holocaust, Barbara Krawcowicz shows that these sources differ in the paradigms―modern and historicist for North American thinkers, traditional and covenantal for Orthodox thinkers―in which they emDescription historical events.

Free Download Harry Redner, "The Triumph and Tragedy of the Intellectuals: Evil, Enlightenment, and Death"
English | ISBN: 1412864100 | 2016 | 340 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
This fourth instalment of Harry Redner’s tetralogy on the history of civilization argues that intellectuals have a brilliant past, a dubious present, and possibly no future. He contends that the philosophers of the seventeenth century laid the ground for the intellectuals of the eighteenth century, the Age of Enlightenment. They, in turn, promoted a fundamental transformation of human consciousness: they literally intellectualized the world. The outcome was the disenchantment of the world in all its cultural dimensions: in art, religion, ethics, politics, and philosophy.

Free Download Visualizing Atrocity: Arendt, Evil, and the Optics of Thoughtlessness (Critical Cultural Communication) by Valerie Hartouni
English | August 20, 2012 | ISBN: 0814738494, 0814769764 | True EPUB | 205 pages | 3.3 MB
Visualizing Atrocity takes Hannah Arendt’s provocative and polarizing account of the 1961 trial of Nazi official Adolf Eichmann as its point of departure for reassessing some of the serviceable myths that have come to shape and limit our understanding both of the Nazi genocide and totalitarianism’s broader, constitutive, and recurrent features. These myths are inextricably tied to and reinforced viscerally by the atrocity imagery that emerged with the liberation of the concentration camps at the war’s end and played an especially important, evidentiary role in the postwar trials of perpetrators.
