Exemplarity and Chosenness: Rosenzweig and Derrida on the Nation of Philosophy (Cultural Memory in the Present)

Exemplarity and Chosenness: Rosenzweig and Derrida on the Nation of Philosophy (Cultural Memory in the Present)

by Dana Hollander (Author)

Synopsis

This study looks at how the philosophies of Jacques Derrida (1930-2004) and Franz Rosenzweig (1886-1929) employ the figures of "exemplarity" and "chosenness" in order to address the tension between the universality of philosophical thinking and the particularity of nations, languages, and individual human experience.
