Influenced first by Islamic theological speculation and the great philosophers of classical antiquity, and then in the late medieval period by Christian Scholasticism, Jewish philosophers and scientists reflected on the nature of language about God, the scope and limits of human understanding, the eternity or createdness of the world, prophecy and divine providence, the possibility of human freedom, and the relationship between divine and human law. Though many viewed philosophy as a dangerous threat, others incorporated it into their understanding of what it is to be a Jew. This Companion presents all the major Jewish thinkers of the period, the philosophical and non-philosophical contexts of their thought, and the interactions between Jewish and non-Jewish philosophers. It is a comprehensive introduction to a vital period of Jewish intellectual history. 410 0$aCambridge companions to philosophy. 606 $aJewish philosophy 606 $aJudaism$xHistory$yMedieval and early modern period, 425-1789 606 $aPhilosophy, Medieval 615 0$aJewish philosophy. 615 0$aJudaism$xHistory 615 0$aPhilosophy, Medieval. 676 $a181/.06 702 $aFrank$b Daniel H.$f1950- 702 $aLeaman$b Oliver$f1950- 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996205062403316 996 $aCambridge companion to Medieval Jewish philosophy$91133961 997 $aUNISA
