This book explores three schools of fascinating, talented, and
gifted scholars whose philosophies assimilated the Jewish and
secular cultures of their respective homelands: they include
halakhists from Rabbi Ettlinger to Rabbi Eliezer Berkowitz; Jewish
philosophers from Isaac Bernays to Yeshayau Leibowitz; and biblical
commentators such as Samuel David Luzzatto and Rabbi Umberto
Cassuto.Running like a thread through their philosophies is the
attempt to reconcile the Jewish belief in revelation with Western
culture, Western philosophy, and the conclusions of scientific
research. Among these attempts is Luzzatto's "dual truth" approach.
The Dual Truth is the sequel to the Ephraim Chamiel's previous book
The Middle Way, which focused on the challenges faced by members of
the "Middle Trend" in nineteenth-century Jewish thought.
