Stern (Judaic and near eastern studies, U. of Massachusetts-Amherst) explores the history of Judaism in a part of southern France also called Occitania, focusing on the decades immediately before and after 1300, a period, he says, when rabbinic culture took most seriously the idea of Moses ben Maimon (Maimonides to the Latin West) that the Torah had philosophical goals. His topics include implications of original philosophic work and the diffusion of philosophic learning in Languedoc 1250-1300, Meiri's transformations of Talmud study, on the eve of the controversy, knowledge and authority in dispute 1303-05, and the effects of the expulsion on Jewish philosophic culture in Roussillon and Provence.
