O knihe
This classic work by early-20th-century Jewish humanist and
scholar Isaac Heinemann surveys the crucial phases of Jewish
thought concerning correct conduct as codified in the commandments.
Heinemann offers systematic insights into the intellectual,
emotional, pedagogical, and pragmatic reasoning advanced
by the major Jewish thinkers. This book, available in English for
the first time, covers Jewish thinkers from the Bible, rabbis, and
philosophers through the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, including
Saadiah, Halevi, Maimonides, and many others. Heinemann
follows the Biblical, rabbinic, medieval, and modern rationales offered
for the commandments in the course of the history of Jewish
thought.
Isaac Heinemann (1876-1957) was one of the leading Jewish
humanists and scholars of the early twentieth century. His career
spanned the golden age of Jewish scholarship in central Europe
and the rise of Jewish studies in modern Israel. He was a leading
authority on Hellenistic and rabbinic knowledge, writing major
studies of Philo of Alexandria and the rabbinic lore (agada).
