Routledge Companion to Jewish Philosophy

The Routledge Companion to Jewish Philosophy is a deep and broad reference that brings diverse perspectives to bear on the key topics, problems, and debates in Jewish philosophy and philosophical theology. The 37 chapters were written by an international team of experts from different traditions in philosophy and beyond and appear in print for the first time in this Companion. The chapters are divided into ten major sections:

Jewish Mysticism

Faith and Reason

Judaism and Normativity

Times and Trends

A list of Related Topics at the end of each chapter and a comprehensive index at the back of the volume help readers navigate the Companion, and Further Reading sections at the end of each chapter identify the best avenues for future research. The volume is essential reading for students and scholars interested in Jewish philosophy, theology, religious studies and related subjects.
