Judah Loew, better known as the Maharal of Prague, was a pivotal
personality in late medieval European Judaism. Best known from the
popular legend that credited him with the creation of a golem - an
artificial human with superhuman powers - his true importance lay
in his comprehensive exposition of a unique expression of Jewish
mystical theology, his call for a reformation of Jewish communal
life, and his influence on subsequent Jewish life and thought.
Byron Sherwin's lucid exposition of the life, legend, works, and
ideas developed in Loew's massive writings 'reveals the concealed'
by unravelling the often obscure nature of his mystical theology,
his polemical jousts against past and contemporary Jewish scholars,
and his innovative programme for social and educational reform.
