Wolfson -- $tIndex. 330 $aThe term ?medieval? performs a great deal more intellectual work in modern Jewish Thought than simply acting as a referent to a particular historical era. During the nineteenth century, often for Jews who were increasingly alienated from their own tradition, the ?medieval? functioned primarily as a bearer of identity in a rapidly changing and secular world. Each chapter in Encountering the Medieval in Modern Jewish Thought addresses a different return to the medieval, ranging from the Enlightenment to the contemporary period, that clothed itself in the language of renewal and of retrieval. The volume engages the full complexity and range of meaning the term ?medieval? carries for modern Jewish Thought. 410 0$aSupplements to The Journal of Jewish Thought and Philosophy$v17. 606 $aJewish philosophy 606 $aJudaism$xHistory$yMedieval and early modern period, 425-1789 606 $aJudaism$xHistory$yModern period, 1750- 606 $aPhilosophy, Medieval 606 $aPhilosophy, Modern 615 0$aJewish philosophy. 615 0$aJudaism$xHistory 615 0$aJudaism$xHistory 615 0$aPhilosophy, Medieval. 615 0$aPhilosophy, Modern. 676 $a181/.06 701 $aDiamond$b James Arthur$01614326 701 $aHughes$b Aaron W.$f1968-$01614327 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910824305603321 996 $aEncountering the medieval in modern Jewish thought$93944106 997 $aUNINA
