By Ahad Ha'am

Book Overview

The Supremacy of Reason: To the Memory of Maimonides is a book written by Achad Ha-Am and published in 1917. The book is a tribute to the great Jewish philosopher and physician, Moses Maimonides, who lived during the 12th century. Ha-Am explores the importance of reason and rational thought in Jewish philosophy and how Maimonides' teachings contributed to this tradition. The book discusses Maimonides' views on the nature of God, the role of reason in understanding the divine, and the relationship between faith and reason. Ha-Am argues that reason should be the guiding principle in Jewish thought and that Maimonides' legacy continues to inspire Jewish thinkers to this day. The Supremacy of Reason is a thoughtful and insightful exploration of the intersection between faith and reason in Jewish philosophy and is a valuable resource for scholars and students of Jewish thought.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
