Maïmonide. Philosophe et savant (1138-1204)
Edited by T. Lévy Edited by R. Rashed
Maimonide, philosophe dans la mouvance d’al-Farabi, etait medecin, informe des mathematiques et maitre de la litterature talmudique. Ce livre a pour ambition d’examiner les liens entre philosophie et science dans l’oeuvre de Maimonide, et aussi de placer celle-ci dans son veritable contexte historique entre Cordoue et Le Caire au XIIe siecle. Les etudes rassemblees ici explorent plusieurs facettes de cette oeuvre: logique, savoir et philosophie mathematiques, ecrits medicaux, conception du libre-arbitre ou des rapports entre nature et loi… Elles examinent aussi l’impact qu’a eu l’oeuvre de Maimonide en arabe, en hebreu et en latin. Maimonides, a philosopher in the tradition of d’al-Farabi, was a physician, well-informed in mathematics, and a master of Talmudic literature. The goal of this book is to examine the links between philosophy and science in Maimonides’ work, and also to situate it within its genuine historical context, between Cordoba and Cairo in the 12th century. The studies collected here explore several facets of this work: logic, mathematical knowledge and philosophy, medical writings, conception of free will and of the relations between nature and law, etc. They also examine the impact of Maimonides’ work on Arabic, Hebrew, and Latin scientific and philosophical literature.
