ANCKAERT, Luc, God, wereld en mens in het twee¬stromenland tussen westerse wijsbegeerte en bijbelse wijsheid. Een filosofische, ethische en theologische dialoog met het ternaire denken van Franz Rosenzweig. [God, world and humans in the Zweistromland between western philosophy and biblical wisdom. A philosophical, ethical and theological dialogue with the ternary thinking of Franz Rosenzweig.I (STD) Promoter: Roger Burggraeve. Interest in the thought and ideas of Frans Rosenzweig has grown significantly in recent years. The purpose of this dissertation is to explore the internal dynamics of his principal work Der Stern der Erlosung (The Star of Redemption) and to inquire into its relevance for contemporary philosophical, ethical and theological reflection. Following a detailed bibliography, part of which was published separately in 1990, the introductory chapter attempts to situate Rosenzweig’s life, thought and the reception of his work. In addition, an effort is made to explain the main questions raised by Rosenzweig as these are developed in a number of texts from Zweistromland, questions related to the existence of God, the reality of the world and the freedom of the human person. Part I examines Rosenzweig’s perspective on God, the world and the human person at an archaeological level, prior to their entry into reality. These three irreducible substances signify the disintegration of an idealistic one-dimensionality which would reduce all of reality to a single principle. The irreducible nature of these three substances also constitutes the transcendental precondition of their ternary relationality. Part ii examines the relationships between God, world and human person: creation, revelation and redemption. The basic paradox of experiential and transcendental thinking (Stem 1) is here transformed into the paradox of an inclusive understanding of relational reality and an existential concept of revelation. Part iii is devoted to Rosenzweig’s concept of truth. Truth is never corn-pletely and exclusively present in time, rather it is experienced by Judaism and Christianity inclusively. In this way both religions partially refer to the transhistorical truth which constitutes a unified perspective on paradoxical reality. From a methodological point of view, ach part is introduced by an elucidation of the philosophical and theological background of Rosenzweig’s work, together with an articulation of its internal dynamics and coherence. Rosenzweig’s own re-examination of the Stern plays and important role here. Each section is concluded with a critical dialogue. Attention to language forms the common framework for three personal reflections: in a reflection rooted in the philosophy of language I examine what is actually happening in Rosenzweig’s text; in a moral theological reflection I systematise and critically examine the building blocks of a fundamental ethics; finally, in a theological evaluation I question the particular nature of Rosenzweig’s Jewish ternary thinking in the Zweistromland between biblical wisdom and western philosophy from the perspective of Christian trinitarian theology and Christology. The mystery of the incarnation allows us to go one step further than Rosenzweigs Jewish thought, at least from a characteristically Christian perspective.
