520 1 $a"Brilliant and bedraggled, the picaresque Jewish philosopher Solomon Maimon was one of the great thinkers of the eighteenth century. Now the definitive English version of Maimon's remarkable Autobiography, the 1888 translation by J. Clark Murray, is available for the first time in paperback, enhanced with a new introduction by Jewish studies scholar Michael Shapiro.".
520 8 $a"Wry and spirited, shrewd and unrepentant, Maimon alternated between nomadic destitution and intellectual swordplay among the Jewish elite of Berlin. The son of a petty merchant in Polish Lithuania, Maimon was a child Talmud prodigy who became increasingly antagonistic toward the secular philosophies of Spinoza, Hume, Leibnitz, and Kant.".
520 8 $a"Through the story of his passage from the inbred religiosity of the ghetto to the scientific philosophical intellectualism of the West, Maimon conveys the physically wretched but spiritually vibrant Polish ghetto, his own development as a thinker in the company of Moses Mendelssohn and others, and the world of the wealthy Berlin Jewry who enthusiastically embraced the ideas of the Enlightenment."--BOOK JACKET.
