Aims & Scope

Naharaimis a newly founded, peer-reviewed journal of the Franz Rosenzweig Minerva Research Centre at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. It is devoted to current research in philosophical, literary, and historical aspects of German-Jewish culture. The contributions are mainly in German or English.

Naharaim features

• Papers that analyze models which are inscribed into the experience of German-Jewish modernity and which have taken on a paradigmatic importance for the experience of modernity in general;
• Papers that sketch the contours of German-Jewish experience in its connection both to general Jewish structures of thought and to its non-Jewish contexts.
• Papers that address themes related to the process of transformation of religious issues into conceptions anchored in the immanent world and to the phenomenon of secularization;
• Papers that reflect on and problematise the theoretical and methodological debates which are currently taking place and which draw on Jewish thought and cultural history.
