Hello, We would like to introduce a new publication by The Hebrew University Magnes press and The Van Leer Jerusalem Institute: The Languages of Talmudic Discourse A Philosophical Study of the Evolution of Amoraic Halakha [http://www.magnes-press.com/NetisUtils/srvrutil_getImg.aspx?unitId=5041]By Ariel Furstenberg<http://www.magnes-press.com/Authors/Ariel+Furstenberg.aspx?name=Ariel+Furstenberg>
A groundbreaking work, this book brings together philosophy of science and language, conceptual dynamics and the Babylonian Talmud. The work asks: what philosophy of natural language lies at the basis of the Halakhic dynamic in the Amoraic discourse of the Talmud? Calling upon two post-Wittgenstein philosophies, the book undertakes a search for a philosophical account of the discursive culture that appears in the Talmud. It unearths the normative infrastructure that lies at its core. Thus, this study articulates what can be termed the Talmudic philosophy of language. On the other hand, it reveals the limits and weaknesses of central philosophical frameworks in coping with a profound traditional discourse like the Talmud, in which the past has a deep and integral role in the present, while at the same time, the present has its own natural and creative dynamic.
