Document Details : Title: Josef Schächter Subtitle: Philosophy of Language between Logical Empiricism and Tanach Study Author(s): RAMHARTER, Esther Journal: Logique et Analyse Volume: 256 Date: 2021 Pages: 375-383 DOI: 10.2143/LEA.256.0.3290349 Abstract : In this essay I examine the changes in the relationship between Josef Schächter and the Vienna Circle. For this purpose, I divide his publications into two groups: those before and those after his emigration from Austria to Israel. A shift in Schächter’s interests from a philosophy in the spirit of the Vienna Circle to a preoccupation with questions of religious education is clearly recognisable, but must also be put into perspective: From the very beginning, and not only after his emigration, his reflections on religion stand in a certain tension with the views of the Vienna Circle. As a key concept for Schächter’s engagement with religion, I present his 'language strata'. |
