The German Stranger provides a guide to Leo Strauss that situates his thought in the context of National Socialism; by destroying any middle ground between ’Athens’ and ’Jerusalem,’ Strauss undermined modernity’s secular bulwark against political theology. Once National Socialism is understood as an atheistic religion re-enacted by post-Revelation ’philosophers,’ the German avatar of Plato’s Athenian Stranger can be recognized as its principal theoretician.
