In This Detailed Study, Nina Caputo Examines Conceptions Of History And Messianic Redemption In The Writings Of The Catalonian Rabbi And Brilliant Talmudic Scholar Nahmanides (11951270). An Early Exponent Of Kabbalah, Nahmanides Was Also A Shrewd Intermediary Between The Jewish Communities And The Royal Administration Of Aragon. Most Intellectual Histories Focus On Nahmanides In The Fairly Insular Context Of Jewish Community Dynamics, But This Volume Explores The Largely Unexamined History Of Encounters Between Jewish And Christian Interpretations Of History And Redemption, As Well As The Significant Role Played By Jews In The Expansion Of The Crown Of Aragon During The Thirteenth Century. Caputo Explains Nahmanides' Distinctive Understanding Of The Shape And Meaning Of Historical Time And Change And Reveals How His Discourse Frequently Confronted Christian Views Of History And Scripture, Sometimes Embracing Christians Forms, But At Other Times Directly Refuting Them.Nina Caputo'S Book Is The First To Situate Nahmanides In The Full Intellectual And Religious Context Of Thirteenthcentury Catalonia. It Makes An Important Contribution To The Fields Of Jewish Studies As Well As Medieval And Early Modern History.
