Franz Rosenzweig’s collection of essays, speeches, and letters convey his commitment to bringing Jews back to their roots through adult Jewish education. As director of the Frieies Juedisches Lehrhaus in Frankfurt am Main, he was able to experiment with his concept of a dialogical method of learning. The institute’s teachers were not rabbis, but rather assimilated Jews who wanted to discover their identity and their faith through a living encounter with other Jews.
