Abstract
Heschel started his philosophy in the tension between chassidic mysticism and modern German philosophy. His criticism of abstraction did not imply a wholesale rejection of German philosophy, but instead ran parallel with the development of phenomenology (Husserl) as "zurück zu den Sachen!" and of existentialism.
