Religious controversy: the books of Gabriel-Uriel da Costa

Main Article Content

Adma Fadul Muhana

Abstract

It is a question of evaluating the Examination of the Pharisaic traditions as a book resulting from the successive refusals that the proposals of the new-Jew Uriel da Costa received by the authorities of the Portuguese nation, after exiling of Portugal, around 1615. Instead of one a pretended unit of thought, the purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the unit of destination of the formulations of the Hebrew jurist da Costa, to delimit his controversies and to compose him as a Portuguese unauthorized author.
