Judaeo-Christian Intellectual Culture in the Seventeenth Century A Celebration of the Library of Narcissus Marsh, (1638-1713)

This work focuses on Latin Judaica and Biblical interpretation with a primary emphasis on texts that were found in the library of Archbishop Narcissus Marsh of Dublin. This remarkable collection of Latin Judaica, Polyglot Bibles, and other works sheds light on the way in which the Protestant Reformation dealt both with Jews, and the Bible, the Jewish Kabbalah and religious toleration or intolerance. The articles contained herein will be of especial interest to historians of religion and philosophy, and those dealing with Jewish-Christian relations and the manner in which Biblical interpretation was changed as a result of seventeenth-century influences. The articles also weave a new approach to the broad history of religious toleration. Philosophers, political thinkers, religious clerics, and budding anthropologists look at Judaism, Christianity, Kabbalah, and the Bible under a new and vastly more modern lens.Coudert, Allison is the author of 'Judaeo-Christian Intellectual Culture in the Seventeenth Century A Celebration of the Library of Narcissus Marsh, (1638-1713)', published 1999 under ISBN 9780792357896 and ISBN 0792357892.
