The late eighteenth to early twentieth century was an intense period of religious controversy, especially on 'the Jewish question', with new models for understanding faith, science, and the past. This volume focuses on the identification of Jewish law, both Pentateuch and Talmud, with the figure of Moses to trace the fascinations and anxieties of the Bible in modern culture. Through diverse perspectives, it examines the representations and appropriations of Moses as a father of Judaism and framer of European civilization. 410 0$aEarly Modern History and Modern History E-Books Online, Collection 2024. 410 0$aScientific and Learned Cultures and Their Institutions ;$v36 517 3 $aGerman Constructions of Biblical Law, 1750?1930 606 $aJewish law 606 $aLeadership$xReligious aspects 615 0$aJewish law. 615 0$aLeadership$xReligious aspects. 676 $a296.1/8094309034 702 $aFeingold$b Mordechai 702 $aKurtz$b Paul Michael 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910878798703321 996 $aMoses among the Moderns$94205537 997 $aUNINA
