Dogma in Mediaeval Jewish Thought: From Maimonides to Abravanel (The Littman Library of Jewish Civilization)

Dogma in Mediaeval Jewish Thought: From Maimonides to Abravanel (The Littman Library of Jewish Civilization) by Kellner, Menachem. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780197100448.

This essay in the history of ideas seeks to trace the development of creed formation in Judaism from its inception with Moses Maimonides (1135-1204) to the beginning of the sixteenth-century, when systematic attention to the problem disappeared from the agenda of Jewish intellectuals. Dr Kellner describes, analyses, and compares the dogmatic systems of Maimonides, Duran, Crescas, Albo, Bibado, Abravanel, among others. English translations are presented for relevant texts, which, for the most part, have never before been critically edited or translated.
