А мы его новый двухтомник публикуем. Надеемся выпустить в июне. называется The Horizontal society. Сейчас повешу аннотацию и подробности на сайт (www.academicstudiespress.com), где и всякое прочее прекрасное объявлено.
А знаете ли Вы, что Фаур пишет первым делом в своих биографиях? Что он первый еврей, получивший докторскую степень в университете Барселоны после 1492 года. Во как.
The meaning of that passage is that since there no longer is a supreme court, conflicts between lower court or jurisconsults may not be denied authoritatively; therefore all opinions are equally valid. Expresses judicially, this means that (since there no longer is a supreme court) Jewish law is horizontal with no vertical dimension. That is to say, that it may not be decided on the principle of authority, but rather on the principle of mutual equality and reciprocity.
Did you see this (ANTI-MAIMONIDEAN DEMONS, footnote 150):
Since in Judaism theology is implicit rather than explicit, the submission of halakhah to theology means surrendering the Law to whatever nonsensical “explanation” is supplied. An excellent illustration is the painful fact that with few exceptions the halakhic authorities hardly protested the abominations perpetrated by the Sabateans in the name of their mystical abominations. A similar situation prevails today with Lubavitch’s messianism; see the courageous work of David Berger, The Rebbe, the Messiah, and the Scandal of Orthodox IndiVerence (London, 2001).
