Buber, Martin

Buber, Martin (1878–1965)

Austrian-born Israeli philosopher, a Zionist and advocate of the reappraisal of ancient Jewish thought in contemporary terms. His book I and Thou (1923) posited a direct dialogue between the individual and God; it had great impact on Christian and Jewish theology.

Buber was born in Vienna. When forced by the Nazis to abandon a professorship in comparative religion at Frankfurt, he went to Jerusalem and taught social philosophy at the Hebrew University from 1937 to 1951.

If there is one central, interconnecting principle that Berdyaev applies to an understanding of the meaning of history, it is found in his condemnation of economic and historical materialism and of kindred abstract interpretations that degrade the life of the soul and enshrine what Martin Buber termed the state of "thingification.
