Synopsis

This volume explores educational practices within the three major monotheistic religions, cultures, traditions, and languages. Through case studies, the contributors illustrate how Jewish, Christian, and Islamic traditions shaped educational ideals, fostered scholarly communities, and guided students through structured curricula. They examine the role of literate elites in transmitting classical knowledge and patristic authority, and how pedagogical legacies contributed to spiritual development and responded to social and religious crises. Aimed at scholars of history, religion, and humanities, students and general readers, this collection of essays offers valuable insights into the enduring and evolving nature of pedagogical values across diverse historical contexts, and features profiles of influential educators such as rabbis, church fathers, exegetes, mystics, jurists, and polymaths.
