Jewish religion, Greek philosophy and Islamic thought mold the
philosophy and theology of Maimonides and characterize his work as
an excellent example of the fruitful transfer of culture in the
Middle Ages. The authors show various aspects of this cultural
cross-fertilization, despite religious and ethnic differences. The
studies prompt thoughts on a question which is important for the
present and the future: How may the different religions, cultures
and concepts of knowledge continue to be conveyed in synthesis? The
volume publishes the lectures given at the July 2004 international
congress at the occasion of the 800th anniversary of Maimonides’
death.
