Summary:Using hitherto unexplored letters and documents from the Markus Barth Papers, held at Princeton Theological Seminary, this article traces the development, and eventual end, of the friendship between Markus Barth and Emil Fackenheim. In doing so, it demonstrates Barth’s very real commitment to Jewish-Christian dialogue, but also shows how difficult this commitment was to maintain in his interpersonal relationships, in the context of differing political responses to Israeli foreign policy.
