I and Thou

AUTHOR: Martin Buber

READ by HAROLD in DECEMBER 2013

Harold's Commentary/Review:

How do I relate to the world? Sometimes I treat everything and everyone as a mere object. Buber would call this an “I-it” relation. In my better moments, I relate to the world with love. Buber calls this the “I-you” relation. Perhaps I can learn to say “You” to the whole world. And perhaps the world will reciprocate.

WHAT is THIS?

This digital bookshelf is, loosely defined, a collection of books that I (Harold Sikkema) have read over the years of my life. I began this list because I wanted to get a sense of my reading over time. I suppose the chronology also gives a picture of my evolving interests and concerns. I cannot claim that this is a complete list; there are lots of things I've read that are not listed here. I will add to my digital bookshelf as time allows. See also: A Compendium of Books, an earlier blog post reflecting on this effort.
