MLPR Volume 4: Averroes and Averroism
ed. Racheli Haliva, Yoav Meyrav, and Daniel Davies
Averroes and Averroism in Medieval Jewish Thought
Boston, Leiden: Brill, 2024.
The Andalusian Muslim philosopher Averroes (1126–1198) is known for his authoritative commentaries on Aristotle and for his challenging ideas about the relationship between philosophy and religion, and the place of religion in society. Among Jewish authors, he found many admirers and just as many harsh critics. This volume brings together, for the first time, essays investigating Averroes’s complex reception, in different philosophical topics and among several Jewish authors, with special attention to its relation to the reception of Maimonides.
