The Philosophy of Martin Buber
(Volume XII, 1967)
A distinguished group of philosophers and scholars have contributed to this volume from a wide range of fields that does justice to most aspects of Martin Buber's thought. Our volume is exceptionally rich in the dialogue, not only between Buber and the contributors but also between Buber's thought and that of such eminent thinkers as Alfred North Whitehead, Paul Tillich, and Gershom Scholem.
The sense in which Buber does and does not regard himself as belonging to the traditional categories of philosopher and theologian is made explicit in the "Philosophical Accounting" that he offers at the beginning of his Responsa. These responsa give us an understanding of another unique form that philosophizing may take in our age, while still remaining genuine philosophy. This bursting of ready-made categories is of great importance in an age in which it has all too often become customary to limit the boundaries of "pure philosophy" within the methods and analyses of one or another school. It is particularly important in the case of a thinker like Buber who does not fit into any category.
