Erkenntnisstufen von der Antike bis zur Gegenwart.


This recent study presents a hermeneutically sophisticated examination of Jewish ways of knowing as evidenced in the writings of the Hebrew Bible. Keenly aware of the philosophical and cultural currents in epistemology from ancient history to today, O’Dowd focuses on the peculiarities of the ancient Hebraic traditions.
