Exploring the tension between tradition and emerging philosophical thought, this 12th-century work delves into the intellectual struggles of a Jewish scholar. Through a three-volume letter format, it addresses the contradictions between religious law and contemporary philosophy, employing metaphor as a key tool while recognizing its limitations. Quickly translated and widely read, it became a classic in both Jewish and secular philosophy, influencing thinkers throughout the Middle Ages. This edition features premium acid-free paper and a translation by M. Friedlander.
