Description
Moses Maimonides' Guide of the Perplexed - often considered the
masterpiece of medieval Jewish philosophy - was originally composed in
Arabic between 1185 and 1190-1191. It was translated twice into Hebrew,
with the title Moreh nevukim, and from Hebrew into Latin. This
complete translation, entitled Dux neutrorum, began to circulate
during the 13th century. The Latin version proceeded to be widely
received and highly influential: prominent authors such as Albert the
Great, Thomas Aquinas, and Meister Eckhart often referred to the
authority of Rabbi Moyses. Nevertheless, the Dux neutrorum has
until now been accessible only through a 16th century printed edition.
The critical edition of the Dux neutrorum, presented here for the
first time, fulfills a long-standing desideratum of the field.
The edition is based on an examination of the entire manuscript
tradition and is accompanied by a substantial historical and
philological introduction.
