Talk:Constantin Brunner

Untitled
It is not strictly correct to call Brunner an assimilationist, as Jayiq does in his most recent edit. Brunner called himself an "emancipationist", meaning that he wanted Jews to abandon outward observances while maintaining their spiritual distinctiveness. I won't revert this, though, because Brunner's careful distinctions can seem insignificant to the unversed, and I don't want to get involved in comparatively trivial disputes. I prefer to leave this to Jayjq's discretion and good will. Barrett Pashak 19:10, 22 Sep 2004 (UTC)


 * According to the 1971 Jewish Encyclopedia "As part of his theory of society and the state, Brunner argued for total assimilation of the Jews, and staunchly opposed Zionism." Obviously the author of that article disagrees with your position.  In any event, abandoning outward observances is assimilation. Jayjg 19:25, 22 Sep 2004 (UTC)

By the way, I've created a re-direct from Leopold Wertheimer to this page. Jayjg 19:50, 22 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I saw that. Thanks very much for all your attention to this. And it's been fun crossing swords, even if I did get nicked. Barrett Pashak 19:55, 22 Sep 2004 (UTC)

That is the best chart ever. Just saying.

POV
The article needs to be seriouly re-written. There is no criticism whatsoever, only a supportive exposition of his though. And the article starts off by claiming that "Brunner's work resolves many of the problems of philosophy." - what a presumption! Todbr (talk) 21:06, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Hi Todbr:


 * As the culprit here, I welcome a rewrite, and especially a section on critical response. I have been assembling material on this, but I don't feel quite ready to add it yet. I would certainly cooperate with any efforts that others undertake. Barrett Pashak (talk) 18:25, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
