International Rosenzweig Society

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The International Rosenzweig Society (IRG) was founded in memory of the important Jewish philosopher Franz Rosenzweig on March 28, 2004 at the second International Congress of Franz Rosenzweig's New Thinking at the University of Kassel . The company is based in Kassel, the city of Rosenzweig's birth.

Goal setting and organization

The society sees its main task in promoting the discussion of this outstanding thinker of the 20th century, as well as research on Rosenzweig's specific approach to existential philosophy, its integration into German philosophy and the peculiarity of his Jewish thinking and the challenge it poses to a Jewish one -to network Christian dialogue in the various countries and in the various specialist areas. Wolfdietrich Schmied-Kowarzik (Kassel) was elected the founding president of the company in 2004, together with the vice-presidents Norbert Samuelson (Tempe, AZ) and Martin Brasser (Lucerne).

Since September 4, 2012 the board of the International Rosenzweig Society has been:

  • Robert Gibbs, Toronto (President)
