ABSTRACT
This chapter explores the aporia of mastery in Judaism through Franz Rosenzweig, in Christianity through Hegel, and in Islam through a combination of Henry Corbin's version of Oriental philosophy and Mohammed al-Jabri's notion of Islamic historicism. Just as the logic of mastery is shared by the three religions, so too is the logic of education. The challenge to each of them is the challenge of KT, also in relation to the same aporias in the other monotheistic faiths. The chapter shows how, in Christianity, in Hegel, reason as mastery collapses into the logic of education as necessity, and that this necessity re-forms both history and recollection within the logic of KT; how in Islam, in Corbin and al-Jabri, reason as mastery collapses into education as a historicist phenomenology and re-forms revelation within the logic of KT; and how in Rosenzweig, reason as mastery collapses into education as the life and the way, and re-forms eternity within the logic of KT.
