{"product_id":"moses-mendelssohn-michah-gottlieb-9781584656852","title":"Moses Mendelssohn: Writings on Judaism, Christianity, \u0026 the Bible","description":"German Jewish philosopher Moses Mendelssohn (1729-1786) is best known in the English-speaking world for his Jerusalem (1783), the first attempt to present Judaism as a religion compatible with the ideas of the Enlightenment. While incorporating much of Jerusalem, Michah Gottlieb's volume seeks to expand knowledge of Mendelssohn's thought by presenting translations of many of his other seminal writings from the German or Hebrew originals. These writings include essays, commentaries, unpublished reflections, and personal letters. Part One includes selections from the three major controversies of Mendelssohn's life, all of which involved polemical encounters with Christian thinkers. Part Two presents selections from Mendelssohn's writings on the Bible. Part Three offers texts that illuminate Mendelssohn's thoughts on a diverse range of religious topics, including God's existence, the immortality of the soul, and miracles. Designed for class adoption, the volume contains annotations and an introduction by the editor.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michah Gottlieb\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1584656859\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781584656852\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brandeis University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/11\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.99lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.04h x 8.98w x 0.77d","brand":"Michah Gottlieb","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48065721106687,"sku":"9781584656852","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_88823d93-6772-402f-9eb9-5974bdc6dfdc.jpg?v=1768676819","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/moses-mendelssohn-michah-gottlieb-9781584656852","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
