In the Emergence Of Ethical Man (Meotzar Horav)
The demonic personality expresses itself in a change in man’s personality.
Rav Soloveitchik brings Santayana, Nietsche and Bergson as his sources.
Rabbi Triebitz claims that Rabbi Soloveitchik draws inspiration from Ernst Cassirer and especially his book An Essay on Man: An Introduction to a Philosophy of Human Culture
The greatness of the Rav was taking ideas from philosophy and integrating them into his Jewish philosophy. Seeing his sources and inspiration allows for a better and deeper understanding of the Rav’s work.
