for
Moses Maimonides: A Great Jewish Philosopher, Theologian and Physician 1135 - 1204 AD
By Hareth Raddawi, MD, FACP
Clinical Professor of Medicine & Gastronenterology, University of Illinois College of Medicine in Chicago
In this presentation, Dr. Raddawi will trace the life and works of Moses Maimonides (1135-1204), one of human civilization’s greatest minds, from his origin in Cordova in Arab Andalusia, to his move to Fes, Morocco all the way to his final stay in Fustat, Egypt. In Egypt, Maimonides became a royal Physician in the court of the Islamic ruler Sultan Salah Al-Din and a leader in the Jewish community. His major books of medicine and philosophy were written in Arabic, while his theological work, the Mishnah Torah, remains a major source of Jewish theology and law to this day. Attendees of this lecture will come to understand Moses Maimonides as an outstanding physician and scholar, a superb clinician and a prolific writer who made everlasting contributions to medicine, philosophy and the humanities.
