Paperback. Condition: New. While the great medieval philosopher, theologian, and physician Maimonides is acknowledged as a leading Jewish thinker, his intellectual contacts with his surrounding world are often described as related primarily to Islamic philosophy. Maimonides in His World challenges this view by revealing him to have wholeheartedly lived, breathed, and espoused the rich Mediterranean culture of his time. Sarah Stroumsa argues that Maimonides is most accurately viewed as a Mediterranean thinker who consistently interpreted his own Jewish tradition in contemporary multicultural terms. Maimonides spent his entire life in the Mediterranean region, and the religious and philosophical traditions that fed his thought were those of the wider world in which he lived. Stroumsa demonstrates that he was deeply influenced not only by Islamic philosophy but by Islamic culture as a whole, evidence of which she finds in his philosophy as well as his correspondence and legal and scientific writings.She begins with a concise biography of Maimonides, then carefully examines key aspects of his thought, including his approach to religion and the complex world of theology and religious ideas he encountered among Jews, Christians, Muslims, and even heretics; his views about science; the immense and unacknowledged impact of the Almohads on his thought; and his vision of human perfection. This insightful cultural biography restores Maimonides to his rightful place among medieval philosophers and affirms his central relevance to the study of medieval Islam.…

Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Al Ándalus fue la cuna de una floreciente cultura filosófica para aquellos musulmanes y judíos, y un contexto histórico, cultural e identitario que permitió a sabios como Maimonides o Averroes abordar las mismas cuestiones filosóficas. Al Ándalus y Sefarad ahonda en el origen de la Filosofía durante el periodo andalusí y su evolución, desde el aristotelismo y el neoplatonismo hasta la teología racional y la filosofía mística, y arroja luz a cómo el gobierno de Omeyas, Almorávides y Almohades, así como las luchas internas y las mantenidas con cristianos y fatimíes, influirían de forma desigual en su desarrollo en ambas comunidades. La indispensable obra de Sarah Stromusa, inédita hasta hoy en nuestro idioma, ofrece una visión integradora de la Filosofía judía e islámica en Al Ándalus, incidiendo en cuanto unió a los pensadores judíos e islámicos mas allá del diferente estatus entre musulmanes y las minorías religiosas andalusíes. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Hardback. Condition: New. An integrative approach to Jewish and Muslim philosophy in al-AndalusAl-Andalus, the Iberian territory ruled by Islam from the eighth to the fifteenth centuries, was home to a flourishing philosophical culture among Muslims and the Jews who lived in their midst. Andalusians spoke proudly of the region's excellence, and indeed it engendered celebrated thinkers such as Maimonides and Averroes. Sarah Stroumsa offers an integrative new approach to Jewish and Muslim philosophy in al-Andalus, where the cultural commonality of the Islamicate world allowed scholars from diverse religious backgrounds to engage in the same philosophical pursuits.Stroumsa traces the development of philosophy in Muslim Iberia from its introduction to the region to the diverse forms it took over time, from Aristotelianism and Neoplatonism to rational theology and mystical philosophy. She sheds light on the way the politics of the day, including the struggles with the Christians to the north of the peninsula and the Fa?t?imids in North Africa, influenced philosophy in al-Andalus yet affected its development among the two religious communities in different ways.While acknowledging the dissimilar social status of Muslims and members of the religious minorities, Andalus and Sefarad highlights the common ground that united philosophers, providing new perspective on the development of philosophy in Islamic Spain.…
