Plague, Persecution, and Philosophy: Avigdor Kara and the Consequnces of the Black Death
Original language description
The Black Death of 1348/1349 had a double impact on Ashkenazi rabbis: it shook the confidence in their own rabbinic tradition and accelerated the spread of scientific knowledge. Evidences for this thesis are Avigdor Kara's commentary on Psalms and a Hebrew medical tract on pestilence that was composed in fifteenth-century Prague.
