Notă biografică
Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks(1948–2020) was an international religious leader, philosopher, award-winning author, and respected moral voice. The chief rabbi of the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth of Nations from 1991 to 2013 and the recipient of the 2016 Templeton Prize, he was the author of over thirty books.
Recenzii
Awarded Book of the Year 2020 in the National Jewish Book Awards
Lady Elaine Sacks commented: 'I know my late husband was very proud of Morality and would have been most honoured by this recognition from the Jewish Book Council. Though he had won many previous Jewish Book Awards, none of his books had been named as the Book of the Year. This shows the particular relevance of Morality in today's increasingly complex world. In the book, he aimed to show society a way forward, and one which prioritises the "We" over the "I" - something he passionately believed in throughout his life. Though he is much missed by our family and so many others, I am delighted the book has been recognised in this way.'
His last book, Morality, while written before the spread of coronavirus, is highly relevant to today's situation. He would not have been silent were he still with us, and his voice is sadly missed.
Jonathan Sacks is one of the great moral thinkers of our time. His latest book, Morality, applies his powerful approach to the unprecedented challenges of our time - social, political, economic, and above all, cultural. May his words be heeded throughout the land.
the work will stand as a worthy successor to, and, in many respects, summation of Sacks's impressive oeuvre
Sacks unpacks a whole litany of dystopian trends arising from our relentless preoccupation with me, me, me
Sacks presents an articulate and impassioned argument . . . He is a fine exegete of the Hebrew Scriptures, and his belief in the common good is profound.
The strength of Morality does not reside in Jonathan Sacks's discussion of political and philosophical theorists, but in those passages in which he speaks to us as rabbi and community leader.
'Sacks argues convincingly that this pursuit of the common good has been disappearing from the West, and has left us impoverished and damaged.'
The inheritor of a tradition with a long historical memory of loss, exile, death and mourning, Sacks has things to say that speak more directly to our present condition than anything in recent liberal thinking.
'Let Us Dream thus joins a growing body of Covid-era literature calling for a communitarian reset of liberal values and institutions... Morality by the late Jonathan Sacks have all traversed similar territory. The collective pro noun is back in fashion.'
And so this last book reads like a summation of his life's work - a propitiously timed gift and a starting point for discussion.
'Britain's most authentically prophetic voice.'
The Daily Telegraph
'One of the most engaging thinkers of our time.'
The Times
'The former Chief Rabbi, Lord (Jonathan) Sacks, is one of the most interesting thinkers, writers and speakers about today. His interventions into the public debate rarely fail to encourage thought, knowledge and indeed wisdom.'
The Spectator
'Jonathan Sacks's voice carries unique moral authority far beyond the Jewish community.'
The Tablet
Praise for NOT IN GOD'S NAME
'Powerful, compelling, timely'
Financial Times, Books of the Year
'Jonathan Sacks returns as a defender of all religions, arguing that belief in God is the solution, not the cause, of global conflict'
