Notes
Wolfgang Welsch (born 1946) is a contemporary German philosopher, whose works are especially influential in the domain of (post)modern aesthetics.
Socratic dialogue refers to a discussion format particularly suited to jointly finding an acceptable attitude to a particular moral or philosophical issue. It involves a small group of people, each of whom contributes an example relevant to the issue under discussion, and a moderator. Ideally, the end result is a consensus.
Martin Buber (1878–1965) was a representative of a particular form of existentialism in 20th-century philosophy. His work encompassed many issues of Zionism; Buber proposed a stronger role of Jewish culture and religion within the Zionist vision of a Jewish state. What contributed to his distinctiveness among the existential philosophies was his thinking on the dialogue between “I-Thou” and “I-It”.
