Summary

Faith and Political Philosophyconsists of fifty-three letters between Leo Strauss and Eric Voegelin, two of the most important political theorists in North America. In this correspondence, Strauss and Voegelin explore the nature of their similarities and differences, offering insightful observations about one anotherrs"s work, about the state of the discipline, and about the influences working on them. The letters shed light on many assumptions made in their published writings, often with an openness that removes all vestiges of uncertainty.
