Jerusalem and Athens : reason and revelation in the work of Leo Strauss

Susan Orr
Orr applies Strauss's own principles of analysis to his pivotal essay "Jerusalem and Athens: some Preliminary Reflections". She reveals Strauss's understanding of religion as more than simply political. Neither an atheist nor a nihilist, he took the possibility of revelation quite seriously.
