Aaron W. Hughes presents the first major study of dialogue as a Jewishphilosophical practice. Examining connections between Jewish philosophy, theliterary form in which it is expressed, and the culture in which it is produced, Hughes shows how Jews understood and struggled with their social, religious, andintellectual environments. In this innovative and insightful book, Hughes addressesvarious themes associated with the literary form of dialogue as well as itsphilosophical reception: Why did various thinkers choose dialogue?
