Burns, Robert I.

Jews in the Notarial Culture: Latinate Wills in Mediterranean Spain, 1250 1350

Berkeley, University of California Press, 1996. 278 pp., Fine copy. Hardcover with dustjacket. In the rapidly transforming world of thirteenth-century Mediterranean Spain, the all-purpose scribe and contract lawyer known as the notary became a familiar figure. Most legal transactions of the Roman Law Renaissance were framed in this functionary's notoriously hasty shorthand. Notarial archives, then, offer a remarkable window on the daily life of this pluri-ethnic society. Robert I. Burns brings together the testimony of a multitude of documents, and transcribes in full nearly fifty will-related charters prepared by notaries, to give a never-before-seen view of Jewish society in that place and time. Wills can display the religious conscience, ethical institutions, social mobility, and property dynamics of whole groups or regions. Even a single testament allows a glimpse into the testator's family and into the life and times of the living person. ISBN: 9780520203938

COHEN, MARK R.

Under crescent & cross. The Jews in the Middle Ages. ISBN 9780691033785

Princeton, 1994. XXII, 280 pp. Very good copy. Orig. cloth, with dustjacket. Did Muslims and Jews in the Middle Ages cohabit in a peaceful "interfaith utopia?" Or were Jews under Muslim rule persecuted, much as they were in Christian lands? Rejecting both polemically charged "myths," Mark Cohen offers a systematic comparison of Jewish life in medieval Islam and Christendom--the first in-depth explanation of why medieval Islamic-Jewish relations, though not utopic, were less confrontational and violent than those between Christians and Jews in the West.

FONTAINE, T.A.M.

In defence of Judaism: Abraham Ibn Daud. Sources and structures of ha-Emunah ha-Ramah. (Studia Semitica Neerlandica)

Assen, 1990. [10], 335 pp. Internally very good. Softcover, sewn. Spine discolored. Middle Ages. This study presents a thematic investigation of Ibn Daud's philosophical treatise "ha-Emunah ha-Ramah" [The Exalted Faith]. It examines the question whether current interpretation is correct in assuming that the thesis is primarily concerned with working out a synthesis between philosophy and religion, or whether, as Ibn Daud indicates at te beginning of the book, it is basically concerned with the problem of free will. In order to answer this question the author examines the structure of Ibn Daud's philosophical work by analysing its topics and their interrelation, and by paying attention to Ibn Daud's use of Biblical verses. Furthermore the study focuses on the Jewish and Islamic sources on which Ibn Daud drew, as well as the way in which he incorporated the philosophy of the Islamic Aristotelians al-Farabi and Ibn Sina into his own thought.

FREUDENTHAL, GAD (ed.)

Studies on Gersonides: A Fourteenth-Century Jewish Philosopher-Scientist (Collection de Travaux de L'Acadimie Internationale D'Histoire Des Sciences)

Leiden, Brill, 1992. XXII, 422 pp. Free endpaper with handwritten dedications. Else very good.Orig. cloth with dustjacket. R. Levi ben Gershom (Gersonides, 1288-1344) is one of the greatest and most original figures of Medieval Jewish thought. He wrote numerous works in philosophy, science and biblical exegesis. Some of his scientific works, most notably his highly innovative Astronomy, were translated from Hebrew into Latin and could thus reach non-Jewish scholars. The twelve studies collected in this bilingual volume (English and French in equal parts) offer for the first time a comprehensive overview and assessment of Gersonides' work in astronomy, mathematics, logic, natural science, and psychology. Gersonides' contributions are analyzed within the context of contemporary philosophy and science in Hebrew, Arabic, and Latin. New light is also shed on the reception of Gersonides' work within European science. The volume includes a very extensive bibliography of writings by and about Gersonides by Menachem Kellner.
