Abstract

More than 800 years after his death, the figure of Moses Maimonides—rabbi, philosopher, doctor, and communal leader—continues to fascinate. _Studies in Maimonides and His Interpreters_ unites the traditional rabbinic approach and the modern academic perspective to forge a new understanding of this iconic teacher._ _ This groundbreaking work by Marc B. Shapiro, which includes an essay on Maimonides’ approach to superstition in rabbinic literature and features three previously unpublished letters by Rabbi Joseph Kafih, will be essential reading for scholars and students of Jewish studies
