Liberal Judaism And Hellenism

""Liberal Judaism and Hellenism: And Other Essays"" is a collection of essays written by Claude Goldsmid Montefiore and originally published in 1918. The book explores the relationship between Judaism and Hellenism, with Montefiore arguing that the two are not necessarily incompatible. He also discusses the concept of a ""liberal"" approach to Judaism, which emphasizes individual interpretation and adaptation of religious practices. Other topics covered in the essays include the role of women in Judaism, the nature of Jewish mysticism, and the history of Jewish thought. Montefiore was a prominent figure in the British Jewish community and a leading proponent of liberal Judaism. His essays in this book provide insight into his beliefs and contributions to the development of modern Jewish thought.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
