Abstract
At the AAR annual meeting, we hope you will be able to participate in three discussions concerning postmodern Jewish philosophy. What is Postmodern Jewish Philosophy?
NU? What IS it, after all? This is an opportunity for Bitnetwork members to discuss the question face-to-face, to reach no answer (except perhaps to declaim questions that begin in the fashion of to on?), to but decide anyway on how to fashion the Bitnetwork.
Our agenda will be, first, to search for the identity of postmodern Jewish philosophy, perhaps like Socrates chasing the Sophist. The points of departure are: the contents of the last Bitnetwork (#2, with comments on the Question by Samuelson, Gibbs, Meskin, Silberstein, et. al); the two statements by Kepnes and Ochs appended below; and your responses, initiated by Greenberg and Silberstein. Suspending discussion after an hour, we hope to close by planning the next issue(s) of the Bitnetwork.
To stimulate discussion, here are a passionate statement by Kepnes on the purpose of postmodern Jewish philosophy, and a phlegmatic statement by Ochs on its methods of inquiry.
