Modernity and What Has Been Lost: Considerations on the Legacy of Leo Strauss,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Modernity and What Has Been Lost comes out of a conference held at the Jagiellonian University in Krakw, Poland, on June 45, 2009 that sought to identify Leo Strauss's intellectual background in re: the repudiation of a modern idea of homogenous, universal state (considered as an illegitimate synthesis of Jerusalem and Athens, i.e., the claims of Reason and Revelation). The world we live in, molded by science and historical relativism, may be described as hostile to human dignity or perfection, or abhorrent to those who love the search for wisdom. Straussian teaching consisted in the steady effort to reopen "the quarrel between the Ancients and the Moderns," and refers to the esoteric way of writing practiced by the most profound thinkers of the past which has been apparently forgotten in the last three centuries. Strauss binds the concept of natural right with the question of maintenance of conditions for philosophizing, and it probably seems to him that such defense of philosophy is the highest task in our times.ContentsHeinrich Meier, Why Leo Strauss?
