GUIDA 2004 197 PP. FONDO DI MAGAZZINO: PERFETTO E INTONSO, PARI AL NUOVO. L’intento di questo studio è quello di provare a pensare, attraverso la ’’novità’’ introdotta sullo scenario filosofico contemporaneo dalla ’’filosofia della religione ebraica’’, la dissoluzione dell’ontologia racchiusa nella formulazione levinasiana dell’’altrimenti dall’essere’’. Il volume, partendo dalle diverse articolazioni del pensiero ebraico così come si è sviluppato e rimodulato in terra d’America, si concentra in un serrato confronto con la filosofia della religione di Hegel. Questi, infatti, sancendo tra religione e filosofia un rapporto di inclusione della prima nella seconda, ha ’’inaugurato’’ un modo di filosofare in cui non c’è più spazio per il senso e, quindi, per l’etica, aprendo così la strada ad alcune declinazioni novecentesche fondate sul primato dell’’essere in generale’’ quale trionfo del Neutro. Viceversa, la ’’novità’’ rappresentata dalla ’’filosofia della religione ebraica’’ - riapertura dello spazio della Trascendenza, recupero integrale della singolarità quale tensione all’etico - consente, in alcuni dei suoi maggiori rappresentanti (Heschel, Soloveitchick, Fackenheim), non solo la ’’rottura’’ definitiva con la filosofia hegeliana e la dissoluzione, quindi, di quell’’’impersonale’’, che, seguendo le imprese ’’antiumane’’ del XX secolo, ha decretato la crisi irreversibile dell’Umanesimo occidentale, ma anche la possibilità di un ’’nuovo inizio’’ per la stessa filosofia. Gianluca Giannini (Napoli, 1973) svolge attività di ricerca presso il Dipartimento di Filosofia ’’A. Aliotta’’ dell’Università di Napoli ’’Federico II’. Tra i suoi scritti si possono qui ricordare: ’Abraham Joshua Heschel: l’identità ebraica di fronte alla sfida della Sho’ah’ (1998); ’Pietro Piovani a vent’anni dalla morte’ (2000); ’Etica e religione in Abraham Joshua Heschel. Lineamenti di una filosofia dell’ebraismo’ (2001); la cura e la traduzione di M. Hess, ’Roma e Gerusalemme. L’ultima questione nazionale’ (2002); ’Lèvinas e la cultura del XX secolo’, a cura di P. Amodio, G. Giannini, G. Lissa (2003); ’Abraham Joshua Heschels Philosophie des Judentums’ (2003); ’Auschwitz. L’eccesso del male’, a cura di P. Amodio, G. Giannini, G. Lissa (2004).

EDITORI RIUNITI 1979 237 PP. PRIMA EDIZIONE. LIEVI SEGNI DEL TEMPO ALLA COPERTINA, BRUNITURE AI TAGLI, VOLUME INTONSO, MAI SFOGLIATO. Ecco un punto di riferimento essenziale nella storiografia sulla social democrazia tedesca e sul marxismo della Seconda Internazionale. Il libro di Steinberg è la ricostruzione dell'ideologia della SPD nel periodo che va dagli anni settanta alla prima guerr mondiale. Al confronto critico con la tesi corrente del kautskismo come supporto dell'integrazione fanno seguito i grandi capitoli sul revisionismo, il riformismo, il praticismo. Ma oltre a delineare il quadro delle varie «anime» della SPD - dal marxismo al darwinismo sociale- l'analisi si ferma su un materiale ormai raro come le letture degli operai socialdemocratici, che si ricavano dalla Newe Zeit, dai cataloghi delle biblioteche operaie e dalla stampa di partito. Si disegna così anche un profilo inedito dei semplici militanti di base e del loro mondo concettuale. Hans Josef Steinberg, nato a Colonia nel 1935, insegna nell'università di Brema e collabora al Forschungsinstitut della Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung. Oltre all'introduzione a un'edizione dell'Antidühring (1967) ha scritto Widerstand und Verfolgung in Essen 1933-1945 (Hannover, 1969) e Die Reichsgrundung 1870-71 (Stuttgart, 1970). Attualmente sta curando la pubblicazione del carteggio Bernstein-Kautsky.

Moses Finzi Lobo was born in Bridgetown, Barbados, West Indies (1834). He came to Philadelphia about 1845, and lived there until his death (1904). He was a respected journalist, scholar, author, and leader in community affairs. His skill and knowledge of shorthand was exceptional, and he was frequently called upon to record scientific addresses, and other important events. He served as private secretary to the Superintendent of the Mint, before resigning that post to engage in literary work. We feel fortunate to be able to present Short-Hand books owned by him. **PRICE JUST REDUCED! SHORTHAND
