In my paper I will attempt a new way of addressing the theoretical core of Rosenzweig’s
theory of miracle, focusing on two aspects : a) the structural relationship between the experience
of miracle and « the little word ‘and’ », or better the specific logic that this implies ; b) the
profound consonance of Rosenzweig’s reflections with some emergent instances from the philosophical
elaboration of the miracle by the nascent phenomenology of religion ; instances that reaffirm

In the natural attitude, and in the ordinary language, religion is strictly bound to transcendence.
In this paper I ask whether the concept of “transcendence” is legitimate in the phenomenological
dimension, which is opened by the methodological operation of reduction
to the immanence of transcendental consciousness. By examining how “transcendence”
gains increasingly importance in Husserl’s thought, the necessity emerges to distinguish
three levels of it: intentional (or horizontal) transcendence, intersubjective transcendence
