Routledge Jewish Cryptotheologies of Late Modernity Book

Explore the complex layers of Jewish philosophy through the lens of the Marrano phenomenon. This academic work from the Routledge Jewish Studies Series examines how philosophical forms act as a conscious clinamen to convey secret messages that resist open articulation. By studying the clash between open idioms and hidden meanings, the text reveals how this tension transforms both the medium and the message within modern thought. This study focuses on the intellectual contributions of major twentieth-century figures. Readers will examine the work of Hermann Cohen, Gershom Scholem, Walter Benjamin, Franz Rosenzweig, and Theodor Adorno. It provides a deep look into how these thinkers navigated the boundaries of language and meaning. This book is an essential resource for scholars interested in the intersection of Jewish thought and modern philosophical developments.
