Time Matters: Time, Creation, and Cosmology in Medieval Jewish Philosophy
Tamar M. Rudavsky
Traces the development of the concepts of time, cosmology, and creation in medieval Jewish philosophy.
Despite the importance of time and cosmology to Western thought, surprisingly little attention has been paid to these issues in histories of Jewish philosophy. Focusing on how medieval philosophers constructed a philosophical theology that was sensitive to religious constraints and yet also incorporated compelling elements of science and philosophy, T. M. Rudavsky traces the development of the concepts of time, cosmology, and creation in the writings of Ibn Gabirol, Maimonides, Gersonides, Crescas, Spinoza, and others.
