This book in two volumes is devoted to examining the first
encounter between traditional Judaism and modern European culture,
and the first thinkers who sought to combine the Torah with
science, revelation with reason, prophecy with philosophy, Jewish
ethics with European culture, worldliness with sanctity, and
universalism with the particular redemption of the Jews. These
religious thinkers of the nineteenth century struggled with
challenges of the modern age that continue to confront the modern
Jews to this day. This objective work of scholarship, neither
simplistic and isolationist nor destructive and arrogant, will be
of interest to the modern thinker and to scholars of the history of
religions. It is relevant to comparative study between Judaism and
the various denominations of Christianity and other faiths that
seek to find a middle way between their traditions and modernity.
