Professor Michael Morgan and Emil Fackenheim's son, Yossi, will present this historic discovery found recently in Toronto. While Emil Fackenheim, one of the most significant theologians of the 20th century, relocated from Germany to Hamilton, he served as Rabbi of Temple Anshe Sholom for a number of years before becoming a Professor of Philosophy at the University of Toronto. From 1943-48, Fackenheim gave weekly radio addresses. This talk will present and discuss some the historic highlights of these restored audio archives.
