Abstract

The question raised by Buber in his 1957 essay, Schuld und Schuldgefühle, is of great importance: in fact, he argues for an objective reality of sin, which cannot be reduced to the subjective-psychological dimension of guilt feelings, but must be recognized and elaborated in the ontic, existential and ethical dimension it deserves.
