This superb collection of writings comes as a tribute to one of the
leading scholars of Judaic Studies in our century, Alexander
Altmann, and to the Institute of Jewish Studies, which he founded.
His former students and colleagues present essays which touch upon
the many areas of Professor Altmann's interests. The studies range
from early rabbinic mystical texts to contemporary theological
investigations. The majority of the articles explore leading
figures and issues in medieval and early modern Jewish philosophy
and mysticism.
Among the important persons whose writings are examined are
Maimonides, Gersonides, Abraham Abulafia, Mendelssohn, Leo Strauss,
and Altmann himself. The contributors to this volume are at the
forefront of contemporary scholarship in the field.
