Gustav Landauer: Anarchist and Jew

For Gustav Landauer, literary critic and anarchist, scholar of mysticism and participant of the Bavarian revolution, culture and politics occupied the same spiritual space. While identifying with ethical socialism, his Jewish sensibility increasingly gained over the years, not only, but in great measure due to Bubers influence. This volume brings together leading scholars to assess Landauers ramified literary and political activities, his life as a Jew and anarchist, paying particular attention to his impact on Martin Buber.
