Description: Readers familiar with the Star are quite aware of the complexity of Rosenzweig’s language as well as the central place that language occupies in his thought. The confluence of these two points renders the task of translating Rosenzweig particularly challenging. Rosenzweig himself taught us that every act of speech thinking is an act of translation, and, conversely, we may assume that every act of translation is an act of speech thinking. Translation, on this accord, exemplifies, embodies, the character of speech thinking, Sprachdenken, Rosenzweig’s deft turnof-phrase to denote the dialogical nature of language. By the latter I assume that, for Rosenzweig, as for Heidegger, Sprache encompasses the written as well as the oral. In the case of Rosenzweig, the juxtaposition is exemplified by the fact that he thought it tenable on phenomenological grounds to heed the voice of revelation from the scriptural text—the confluence of the oral and written well captured in the image of giving voice to the inscripted.
