Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the allegorical representation of human body and soul in Jewish literature from the 9th to the 13th centuries, which was a significant period for the development of Jewish thought. The author traces the influence of Greek philosophy on Jewish scholars, particularly t…he concept of microcosm and macrocosm, which viewed the human body as a reflection of the universe. The book examines a variety of metaphors used to describe the relationship between body and soul, including comparisons to a king and palace, a captain and ship, and a rider and horse. These metaphors reveal the complex and evolving understanding of the human condition within Jewish thought during this period, shedding light on the philosophical and religious beliefs of the time. Overall, this book provides valuable insights into the interplay between body and soul in Jewish thought and its broader cultural context. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
