| Summary |
This volume presents the theory of culture of the Russian-born German Jewish social philosopher David Koigen (1879-1933).

The resulting primacy given to religious consciousness brought him close to Martin Buber, with whom he shared an interest in East European Hasidism as a source of religious renewal. Author of Ideen zur Philosophie der Kultur (1910) and Der moralische Gott (1922), among other works, Koige |
