Disempowered King: Monarchy in Classical Jewish Literature
ISBN: 9781441140883 / Angielski / Miękka / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Disempowered King studies the conception of kingship, and its status, powers and authority in Talmudic literature. The book deals with the conception of kingship against the background of the different approaches to kingship both in Biblical literature and in the political views prevalent in the Roman Empire. In the Bible one finds three (exclusive) approaches to kingship: rejection of the king as a legitimate political institution - since God is the (political) king; a version of royal theology according to which the king is divine (or sacral); and a view that God is not a political king yet...

Analysis of Concepts and States in Talmudic Reasoning
ISBN: 9781848900929 / Hebrajski / Twarda / 324 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this book we deal with combinations of concepts defining individuals in the Talmud. Consider for example Yom Kippur and Shabbat. Each concept has its own body of laws. Reality forces us to combine them when they occur on the same day. This is a case of "Identity Merging." As the combined body of laws may be inconsistent, we need a belief revision mechanism to reconcile the conflicting norms. The Talmud offers three options: 1 Take the union of the sets of the rules side by side 2. Resolve the conflicts using further meta-level Talmudic principles (which are new and of value to present day...

Crafting the 613 Commandments: Maimonides on the Enumeration, Classification, and Formulation of the Scriptural Commandments
ISBN: 9781618113870 / Angielski / Miękka / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Rabbinic tradition has it that 613 commandments were given to Moses on Mount Sinai, but it does not specify those included in the enumeration. Maimonides methodically and artfully crafts a list of 613 commandments in a work that serves as a prolegemenon to the Mishneh Torah, his monumental code of law. This book explores the surprising way Maimonides put this tradition to use and his possible rationale for using such a tradition. It also explores many of the philosophical and ethical ideas animating the composition of such a list. In the book's second half, Friedberg examines the manner by...

Franz Rosenzweig and the Systematic Task of Philosophy
ISBN: 9781107691315 / Angielski / Miękka / 354 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Benjamin Pollock argues that Franz Rosenzweig s The Star of Redemption is devoted to a singularly ambitious philosophical task: grasping the All the whole of what is in the form of a system. In asserting Rosenzweig s abiding commitment to a systematic conception of philosophy often identified with German Idealism, this book breaks rank with the assumptions about Rosenzweig s thought that have dominated the scholarship of the last decades. Indeed, the Star s importance is often claimed to lie precisely in the way it opposes philosophy s traditional drive for systematic knowledge and upholds...

What's Divine about Divine Law?: Early Perspectives
ISBN: 9780691165196 / Angielski / Twarda / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the thousand years before the rise of Islam, two radically diverse conceptions of what it means to say that a law is divine confronted one another with a force that reverberates to the present. What's Divine about Divine Law? untangles the classical and biblical roots of the Western idea of divine law and shows how early adherents to biblical tradition--Hellenistic Jewish writers such as Philo, the community at Qumran, Paul, and the talmudic rabbis--struggled to make sense of this conflicting legacy. Christine Hayes shows that for the ancient Greeks, divine law was divine...

Rabbinic Traditions Between Palestine and Babylonia
ISBN: 9789004267893 / Angielski / Twarda / 385 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In this book various authors explore how rabbinic traditions that were formulated in the Land of Israel migrated to Jewish study houses in Babylonia. The authors demonstrate how the new location and the unique literary character of the Babylonian Talmud combine to create new and surprising texts out of the old ones. Some authors concentrate on inner rabbinic social structures that influence the changes the traditions underwent. Others show the influence of the host culture on the metamorphosis of the traditions. The result is a complex study of cultural processes, as shaped by a unique...

A Traveling Homeland: The Babylonian Talmud as Diaspora
ISBN: 9780812247244 / Angielski / Twarda / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A word conventionally imbued with melancholy meanings, "diaspora" has been used variously to describe the cataclysmic historical event of displacement, the subsequent geographical scattering of peoples, or the conditions of alienation abroad and yearning for an ancestral home. But as Daniel Boyarin writes, diaspora may be more constructively construed as a form of cultural hybridity or a mode of analysis. In "A Traveling Homeland, " he makes the case that a shared homeland or past and traumatic dissociation are not necessary conditions for diaspora and that Jews carry their homeland with...

Fuzzy Logic and Quantum States in Talmudic Reasoning

This volume deals with issues already discussed in volumes eight and nine: Analysis and Synthesis of concepts. So far we have assumed binary logic, i.e., either something is true or it is false. Now we leave this dichotomous approach, and discover that an extension to multi-valued logic (fuzzy logic) and quantum states helps to solve problems left unsolved in the dichotomous approach.
