Sobre El Autor
Solomon ben Judah ibn Gabirol, also known as Avicebron, was a Spanish poet and philosopher. He is thought to have been born in Malaga and later moved to Zaragoza (Saragossa). Orphaned at an early age, he wrote a number of elegies on the death of his parents. He devoted his life to philosophy and mostrar más poetry and was dependent on the support of patrons. His most generous protector was Jekuthiel ben Isaac ibn Hassan. Upon Jekuthiel's death, Gabirol composed a 200-verse elegy, which is considered to be one of the finest examples of secular medieval Jewish poetry. He was one of the earliest poets to use Arabic meter. All of his poems, regardless of length, are rhymed and end with the same syllable. He is believed to have died in Valencia.

- Solomon Ibn Gabirol was a Jewish poet and philosopher. His secular poetry deals partly with nature and love, but most of it reveals a gloom and bitterness engendered by his tragic life. Orphaned early, he spent much of his life contending with mediocre rivals and critics jealous of his scholarship. It is thought that he was murdered by a rival. Ibn Gabirol`s religious poetry is filled with a mystic awe of God, and much of it has been incorporated into the Judaic liturgy. His great philosophical work, The Well of Life, showing the influence of Neoplatonism, was written in Arabic. In its Latin translation (Fons vitae), it exercised a great influence on Christian thought. The book is an attempt to explain the universality of matter, man`s purpose in life, and the communion of man`s soul with the spiritual sources that created it. His hundreds of poems and his book of ethics, The Improvement of the Moral Qualities, were also important.

Este libro está pensado para aquellas personas preocupadas por los derechos humanos, pero no familiarizadas con las fuentes bíblicas y talmúdicas. En estas páginas se examina la importante aportación de la Biblia y de la antigua tradición judía a ese capítulo de los derechos humanos al que tan sensible es el hombre de nuestro tiempo.
Los libros bíblicos recogieron numerosas disposiciones y preceptos, “estatutos y sentencias justos”. Los rabinos de la época talmúdica los enriquecieron aportando sus propios puntos de vista, si bien el concepto de justicia y sus exigencias han ido cambiando con el paso del tiempo. Junto a perspectivas claramente en consonancia con los derechos humanos, el lector de hoy puede extrañarse de encontrar en la Biblia y en el Talmud discriminaciones que nos parecen insostenibles, o leyes que se han hecho arcaicas. No obstante, el autor defiende que en el contexto de la vida de la sociedad antigua la mayor parte de ellas son de carácter progresista.… (más)
