Jewish Philosophy

from Philosophy Talk Hosted by Philosophy Talk

Rabbis and Talmudic scholars have spent centuries puzzling over theology, texts, and life. In the process they came up with many philosophical ideas that have inspired the work of more recent philosophers such as Martin Buber and Emmanuel Levinas. Who or what is God? By what rules should people live? And what does Maimonides have to say about diets and bathing? John and Ken investigate the past, present, and future of Jewish philosophy with Paul Franks from the University of Toronto, author of All or Nothing: Skepticism, Transcendental Arguments and Systematicity in German Idealism.
