In 'Cultures in Collision and Conversation', David Berger addresses
three broad themes in Jewish intellectual history: Jewish
approaches to cultures external to Judaism and the controversies
triggered by this issue in medieval and modern times, the impact of
Christian challenges and differing philosophical orientations on
Jewish interpretation of the Bible, and Messianic visions,
movements, and debates from antiquity to the present. These essays
include a monograph-length study of Jewish attitudes toward general
culture in medieval and early modern times, analyses of the thought
of Maimonides and Nahmanides, an assessment of the reactions to the
most recent messianic movement in Jewish history, and refl ections
on the value of the academic study of Judaism.
