Description
Summary:One of the key concepts of the liberationist project for Latin America that Enrique Dussel articulated during the 1960’s was the retrieval of the Hebrew-Semitic sources of Christianity. This idea was fueled by at least two significant sources: Martin Buber’s appeal to an Orientalist indigeneity and the two years (1959–60) the young Dussel spent between Christians and Jews in the State of Israel. Consequently, Dussel saw in the ancient Hebrew sources a key to understand the Latin American identity.
