Title:
The Pleasures of Life and the Praise of Wisdom in the Book of Qohelet in the Light of Medieval Jewish Interpreters
Creator:
Gomez Aranda, Mariano
Description:
The article analyzes how the most important medieval Jewish exegetes interpreted the book of Qohelet. It is focused on some of the most controversial ideas of the text, namely, the meaning of pleasures of life and the kind of wisdom praised in the book. The question of authorship, although not controversial, is also analyzed. The interpretations of medieval Jewish exegetes on these topics were the basis for their understanding of the purpose of the book as a whole. Different explanations were given by Jewish exegetes on whether the book of Qohelet encourages asceticism or promotes the knowledge of foreign sciences.;
Przyjemności życia i pochwała mądrości w Księdze Koheleta w ujęciu średniowiecznych żydowskich komentatorów Artykuł przedstawia, w jaki sposób najważniejsi średniowieczni egzegeci żydowscy interpretowali Księgę Koheleta. Koncentruje się on na wybranych kontrowersyjnych koncepcjach tekstu, a mianowicie na znaczeniu przyjemności życia i rodzaju mądrości, która jest chwalona w księdze. Kwestia autorstwa, choć nie jest uznawana za kontrowersyjną, również stanowi przedmiot analizy. Interpretacje średniowiecznych egzegetów żydowskich dotyczące tych zagadnień były podstawą rozumienia przez nich celu całej księgi. Żydowscy egzegeci różnie wyjaśniali Księgę Koheleta, zastanawiając się, czy zachęca do ascezy, czy też promuje wiedzę o obcych naukach.

The aim of this article is to demonstrate the relationship between Another World and Emmanuel Lévinas’s philosophy of dialogue. The researcher, taking into account the French philosopher’s reflections on separation, atheism and Face, proposes to read the work of Éric Chahi as a self-reflective form of authorial expression. Another World is not only a thorough look at the relationship between players and the Other, but also a reflection on programming as a simultaneous catalyst for isolation and
