As is well-known, a striking feature of Fackenheim's thought is his unwavering contention that the Holocaust brought about a radical shift in human history, so monumental and unprecedented that nothing can ever be the same again. Fackenheim regarded it as the specific duty of thinkers and scholars to assume responsibility to probe this historical event for its impact on the human future and to make its immense ramifications evident.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eEmil Fackenheim's Post-Holocaust Thought and Its Philosophical Sources\u003c\/i\u003e, scholars consider important figures in the history of philosophy  including Kant, Hegel, Heidegger, and Strauss  and trace how Fackenheim's philosophical confrontations with each of them shaped his overall thought.
