Abstract
This book is an invitation on to discover the loftiness of a dialogical life, as eminently described by Jewish dialogical thinkers. Dialogue engenders meaningful speech and me, generates common worlds and infuses us with the joy of creative inter-being. In populism living speech is repressed, while in interconnectedness it is restored. Today's emphasis upon the individual and her rights is a remedy against totalitarianism. The I is no longer a mere instance of collectivity. However, is identity imaginable without alterity? Can one be oneself without the other? Are self-development and self-realization the primal goals of life? The dialogical exercises presented here are a way to correct the loss of our sense of connectedness. They open a window to a meaningful life of vigilance and care for the other. provided by publisher
