Description

A scintillating but scholarly guide to the thinking of Leo Strauss that situates his thought in the context of National Socialism. By destroying any middle ground between Athens and Jerusalem, Strauss skillfully undermined modernity's secular bulwark against political theology. Once National Socialism is understood as an atheistic religion re-enacted by post-Revelation philosophers, the German avatar of Plato's Athenian Stranger can be recognized as its principal theoretician
