1964ref. 69141Osnabrück: Otto Zeller 1964. Photomechanical reprint. Hardcover. Octavo 23.5 cm Yellow cloth over boards stamped in black and gilt. Light foxing to the text block edges. Traces of light soiling to the front board of volume 1. Text in French and Hebrew. Photomechanical reprint of the 1856-1866 edition. Moses ben Maimoun 1138-1204 more commonly known as Maimonides in the English language and as Rambam in Hebrew is viewed as the greatest Jewish philosopher of the Middle Ages. This work The Guide of the Perplexed is his magnum opus. It is an in-depth treatment of Jewish thought and practice that aims to resolve the conflict between religious knowledge and secular. Although strongly influenced by the Neo-Platonized Aristotelianism that had sprouted in Islamic circles it departs from the dominant modes of Aristotelian thought by emphasizing the limits of human knowledge and the questionable foundations of significant parts of astronomy and metaphysics. Maimonides was also a well-known physician who wrote medical treatises on numerous diseases and their cures. Later generations of philosophers wrote detailed commentaries on the works of Maimonides which heavily influenced thinkers such as Aquinas Spinoza Leibnitz and Newton.

1813ref. 58749Andover: Flagg and Gould 1813. First edition 8vo pp.123 1; quarter calf over marbled boards manuscript paper label on spine; boards rubbed upper joint starting textblock clean and sound. One of the first books published at Andover Theological Seminary and for more than thirty years the standard among theological institutions. Paradise A history of printing in Andover. Prior to his joining Andover as professor of sacred literature Stuart had no acquaintance with Hebrew. He immediately began intensive study of the language and became one of the few native-born Americans to know enough to teach it. Lack of funding compelled Stuart to produce his own grammar for the benefit of his students which was first circulated in manuscript then printed in 1813 and expanded in 1821. He had to import Hebrew type and as local printers couldn't properly set it did much of the setting himself DAB. While other grammars of Hebrew had been printed in America as accompaniments to lexicographical works this is one of the earliest if not the first separately produced grammar of Hebrew in the States.

A complete set of the three parts of Maimonides acclaimed work The Guide for the Perplexed in German and Hebrew bound in one volume. All of the editions included here contain the first German translations of their respective parts of the text. Maimonides' intention with this work was to reconcile Aristotelian thought and logic with traditional Rabbinical Jewish theology. Originally written circa 1190 in Judeo-Arabic as Dalalat al-Ha'irin these writings takes the form of a lengthy three-part letter to his student Rabbi Joseph ben Judah of Ceuta and are seen as the main source for understanding Maimonides' philosophic view rather than his strictly being his views on Jewish law. It is the most known of his works in the non-Jewish world. The work's first translation into Hebrew was in 1204 by Rabbi Samuel ben Judah ibn Tibbon c.1150 - c.1230 a contemporary of Maimonides.

Content finely printed in double and single-column layouts with commentary printed in Rashi script. Divided in 76 chapters this part of the work contains discussions of an understanding and definition of the nature of God and divine anthropomorphism in the Hebrew bible including a detailed analysis of the Biblical Hebrew of the text to these ends.

Divided into 48 chapters the second part involves Maimonides discussion of proof of the existence of God the nature of creation the concept of prophecy and an examination of the 26 propositions for Aristotle's metaphysics. The initial pages contain introduction and foreword by Stern. Also included is a fold-out plate containing facsimile text from an original signed manuscript note from the hand of Maimonides himself written in Japhet son of Solomon's corrected manuscript copy of the Mishneh Torah held at Bodleian Library at Oxford MS Hunt.80 leaf 165a.
