AUTHOR
SUMMARY
In The Angel of History, Moses looks at three Jewish philosophers-Franz Rosenzweig, Walter Benjamin, and Gershom Scholem-who formulated a new vision of history in 1920s Germany by moving away from the spirit of assimilation and from the Western vision of history rooted in an Enlightenment belief in humanity's inevitable progress. Instead, they imagined history as discontinuous, made of moments that form no totality but whose ruptures are both more significant-and more promising-than any apparent homogeneity.Moshs, Stiphane is the author of 'L' Ange de L'Histoire', published 2008 under ISBN 9780804741170 and ISBN 0804741174.
