Description
In a theoretically framed examination of rabbinic ethics, Schofer investigates how late ancient rabbis named and discussed their emotions, desires, and impulses; what ideals they established for character and action; and how they strove to transform themselves and attain those ideals. His study centers on the anthology The Fathers According to Rabbi Nathan.
