Martin Buber’s I and Thou has long been acclaimed as a classic. Many prominent writers have acknowledged its influence on their work; students of intellectual history consider it a landmark; and the generation born after World War II considers Buber one of its prophets. Buber’s main proposition is that we may address existence in two ways: (1) that of the “I” toward an “It,” toward an object that is separate in itself, which we either use or experience; (2) that of the “I” toward “Thou,” in which we move into existence in a relationship without bounds.

April 7, 1944 - This date marks the successful escape of two Slovak prisoners from one of the most heavily-guarded and notorious concentration camps of Nazi Germany.

"Una comunità fra i vivi e i morti (che diversamente non potrebbe essere creata in modo altrettanto intenso nel nostro attuale ciclo epocale) viene realizzata per il fatto che noi ci riempiamo di pensieri tratti dalla scienza dello spirito e che, tenendo in considerazione il morto, in un certo senso li offriamo a lui". Rudolf Steiner è senza dubbio uno degli esoterismi ottocenteschi più celebri. Vissuto a cavallo tra Ottocento e Novecento, ha fondato l'antroposofia, dottrina di derivazione teosofica .

The enduring influence of the Catholic Church has many sources, but in the first half of the 19th century, the foundations upon which the church had rested were shaken. For many people, liberalism in the guise of liberty, equality, and fraternity was the quintessence of the evils that shook those foundations.
