520 8 |a Annotation  |b In his original 1976 version of Maimonides: Torah and Philosophic Quest, noted scholar and theologian David Hartman departs from traditional scholarly views about Maimonides by offering a new way of understanding the great 12th-century philosopher and his work. The best-known works by Maimonides, his Mishneh Torah and Guide to the Perplexed, have often been viewed by scholars as having different audiences and different messages, together reflecting the two sides of the author himself 
520 8 |a Hartman examines these two sides of Maimonides: the halakhist, who focused on piety through obedience to Jewish law, and the philosopher, who advocated closeness to God through reflection and knowledge of nature. But while many scholars look at one aspect of Maimonides to the exclusion of the other, Hartman argues that the way to really understand him is to see both adherence to the law and to philosophical pursuits as two essential aspects of Judaism 
520 8 |a Winner of the National Jewish Book Award, this expanded edition of Maimonides: Torah and Philosophic Quest includes the original study as well as Hartman's new postscript that sheds a fresh light on his argument and indeed on Judaism as Maimonides interpreted it
