Summary:Rabbi Joseph B. Soloveitchik's philosophy plays a significant role in twentieth century Jewish thought.

Schwartz analyzes these essays according to this thesis: in the mid 40s Soloveitchik used the phenomenology of religion to express his views, while in the 50s he added the existential theory.
