La obra literaria de Abraham Maimómides y la defensa de los escritos de su padre

Abstract

The author comments upon the literary work by Abraham Maimonides, son of the philosopher Maimonides, and illustrates it with the translation of Abraham’s two writings. In the fistst, the son of Maimonides describes his literary works and in the second he protects his father from the attacks of the traditionalits. We also bring the testimony of the historiographer Yosef Sambari about Maimonides’ son. Abraham Maimonides inherited from his father the rationalistic tendency, though with a pietistic slope, coming from his motherly family, which was inspired in the Islamic Sufistic theories.
