This groundbreaking book was among the most important of those that presented the teachings of Maimonides, as represented by his many published works, as a unified whole, thus bringing about a renaissance in the study of this seminal scholar. The author states, in his original introduction, that “the spirit which animated [Maimonides’] mind and pervades his writings is as much needed now as ever before.” Academic Studies Press is proud to make this important work once again available in printed form.

Asher Ginsberg (1856-1927), also known as Ahad Ha'am, was a prominent pre-state Zionist thinker and considered the founder of Cultural Zionism, fighting for what he described as 'a Jewish state and not merely a state of Jews.' This 1912 collection of essays, translated by Leon Simon, expresses his philosophy and beliefs on Zionism and other Jewish topics, helping the reader build an understanding of Ahad Ha'am and his era.

Throughout history, Judaism has been under attack by other religions, attacks which strengthened the identification of the group as a whole. Modern challenges, however, are coming from different directions, and are producing different results. Jewish identification is declining at the same time as more and more Jewish groups to identify with are rising. Rather than being a disaster, Kaplan argues that the multiplicity of threads in Jewish life today represents the process of a radical transformation “nothing less than metamorphosis”. It is in this way that Judaism is creating its own future, the greater Judaism in the making.

The first of a three-volume series, this book offers access to a rich selection of Eva Jospe’s most distinguished works on Jewish Philosophy. The editors unveil Jospe’s previously unpublished study “The Concept of Encounter in the Philosophy of Martin Buber,” presented alongside several of her published articles on the life and work of Buber, and on Modern Jewish thought. The second volume of this series contains Jospe’s translations of Moses Mendelssohn, and Volume Three is comprised of her Reason and Hope: Selections from the Jewish Writings of Hermann Cohen. Together, these volumes offer a multidimensional view of Jospe’s work and thoughts, including a heightened awareness of the paradox noted by Ephraim Meir in his introduction—Jospe’s appreciation and admiration of Martin Buber, reflected in her clear presentation and analysis of his dialogical philosophy, simultaneously coupled with her pointed criticisms of the standpoint of her one-time teacher.

The second of a three-volume series, this book contains Eva Jospe’s Moses Mendelssohn: Selections from His Writings, together with an article dealing with Mendelssohn’s enduring significance. As Raphael Jospe observes in his introduction to the volume, despite the welcome growth in recent years in the availability of English translations of Mendelssohn’s works, Eva Jospe’s Selections (including some of Mendelssohn’s private letters) remain valuable for their clarity, for the logic of their organization, and for the important insight they provide into Mendelssohn’s personality and convictions.Volume One of this series contains Eva Jospe’s study of the Concept of Encounter in the Philosophy of Martin Buber , and Volume Three her Reason and Hope: Selections from the Jewish Writings of Hermann Cohen. Together, these volumes offer a multidimensional view of Jospe’s work and thoughts.

The third of a three-volume series, this book contains Eva Jospe’s Reason and Hope: Selections from the Jewish Writings of Hermann Cohen, together with two essays examining Cohen’s continuing importance and relevance. As Dov Schwartz suggests in his introduction to the volume, Jospe believed that Cohen’s Jewish Writings had the potential for influence and impact on the American Jewish intellectual, and would enrich the ethical and religious life of the Jewish community in America. Her selection of passages to translate, as well as her decisions regarding what to omit, served these purposes. Volume One of this series contains Jospe’s study of the Concept of Encounter in the Philosophy of Martin Buber and Volume Two her translations of Moses Mendelssohn. Together, these volumes offer a multidimensional view of Jospe’s work and thoughts.
