520 Could the best thing about religion be the heresies it
spawns? Leading intellectuals in interwar Europe thought
so. They believed that they lived in a world made derelict
by God's absence and the interruption of his call. In
response, they helped resurrect gnosticism and pantheism,
the two most potent challenges to the monotheistic
tradition. In God Interrupted, Benjamin Lazier tracks the
ensuing debates about the divine across confessions and
disciplines. He also traces the surprising afterlives of
these debates in postwar arguments about the environment,
neoconservative politics, and heretical forms of Jewish
identity. In lively, elegant prose, the book reorients the
intellectual history of the era. God Interrupted also
provides novel accounts of three German-Jewish thinkers
whose ideas, seminal to fields typically regarded as
wildly unrelated, had common origins in debates about
heresy between the wars. Hans Jonas developed a philosophy
of biology that inspired European Greens and bioethicists
the world over. Leo Strauss became one of the most
important and controversial political theorists of the
twentieth century. Gershom Scholem, the eminent scholar of
religion, radically recast what it means to be a Jew.
Together they help us see how talk about God was adapted
for talk about nature, politics, technology, and art. They
alert us to the abiding salience of the divine to
Europeans between the wars and beyond--even among those
for whom God was long missing or dead.
