About This Book

"Judah Ha-Levi (1075-1141), a medieval Jewish poet, mystic, and sophisticated critic of the rationalistic tradition in Judaism, is the focus of this ground-breaking study. Diana Lobel examines his influential philosophical dialogue, Sefer ha-Kuzari, written in Arabic and later translated into Hebrew, which broke religious and philosophical convention by infusing Sufi terms for religious experience with a new Jewish theological vision.

Intellectually engaging, clear, and accessible, Between Mysticism and Philosophy is resource for anyone interested in the intertwined worlds of Jewish and Islamic philosophy, religion, and culture."--BOOK JACKET.
