Rabbinic Judaism's Generative Logic


<p>First volume documenting Rabbinic Judaism in its formative age.</p> <p>What are the rules of cogency, of coherent discourse, that everybody in the normative documents takes for granted, that is, what defines the self-evidence of the intellectual system of Rabbinic Judaism embodied in the formative canon, Mishnah through Bavli?</p> <p>In these two volumes Neusner explains how the authoritative, canonical documents of Rabbinic Judaism in its formative age signal self-evidence: the generative logic that animates all active thought embodied in those writings.</p> <p>This project condenses two monographs on the foundations of self-evidence in Rabbinic Judaism: The Making of the Mind of Judaism and The Formation of the Jewish Intellect: Making Connections and Drawing Conclusions in the Traditional System of Judaism.</p> <p>The studies are connected, with the second carrying forward the problem of the first, and they are meant to be read in sequence.</p>
