Martin Buber, one of the greatest philosophers of the 20th century. The medal is the fifth in a series dedicated to "Jewish personalities" who have contributed to humanity, which also includes the medal of Albert Einstein, George Gershwin, Franz Kafka, Sigmund Freud and Leon Blum. Martin Buber (1965-1878) was born in Vienna, a descendant of a family of scholars. He studied philosophy and art history. Was active in the Zionist movement and edited the weekly "DIE WELT". When the Nazis came to power, he immigrated to Israel and taught at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
