Philosophy and the Jewish Tradition: Lectures and Essays by Aryeh Leo Motzkin: Studies in Jewish History and Culture, cartea 34

Editat de Yehuda Halper
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 5 oct 2011
Aryeh Motzkin was an extraordinary thinker and writer. Much of his work appeared in small academic journals despite the fact that it is often quite accessible, even to non-experts. This volume assembles his most important published papers along with several unpublished papers. They all have a single theme: the encounter between the Jewish tradition and philosophy as discovered by Plato and Aristotle. The book’s first group of essays deal with the way medieval Jewish thinkers understood the philosophies of Plato and Aristotle. The second group deals with how these same medieval thinkers were themselves interpreted by modern thinkers, beginning with Spinoza. A recurring issue in all the essays is the difficulty inherent in any encounter between philosophia perennis and the changing history of Judaism.

Recenzii

"I knew Motzkin for sixty years; I valued his gifts and especially his quick wit. I will go so far as to say that in his own way, he knew as well as anyone I have met what it means to be a philosopher." - Stanley Rosen, Boston University
